The Digital Smile Design Concept is much more than a smile design system, its technology allows our team to provide the highest level of dentistry excellence to our patients. It can also improve communication by involving the patient in designing their new smile and by providing the opportunity to view the finished smile before treatment has even begun.
Dr. Brachowicz is a certified DSD Resident with specialized training in the Digital Smile Design concept. Learn more about Digital Smile Design by downloading the DSDApp® or request an appointment to try it today!

Calibrate the Photo
Step 1
Using the DSDApp, we will capture a frontal facial smiling photo using the DSDApp and then mathematically calibrate that image using reference points as well as analyze your facial aesthetics to create a harmonious facial flow. Scroll over the photo to see how we calibrate your smile!
Step 2
Using gingival and incisal reference lines, DSDApp technology can be use to adjust the proportions and position of your smile to create the most aesthetic smile frame for your facial symmetry. Scroll over the photo to see how the lines can be adjusted to perfect your smile!

What Is Digital Smile Design?
Digital Smile Design is a computerized dental tool that is used to make improvements to your smile with optimal cosmetic accuracy. Using a photo of your face, the computer software analyzes your existing smile and determines what changes need to be made to make your smile look more symmetrical. A plan is created that will help you achieve the results you want through one or more dental procedures. The computer creates an image of your smile the way it will look when treatment is complete.
Benefits of Digital Smile Design
Digital Smile Design offers many benefits, including:
Natural smile. Digital Smile Design provides accurate and precise measurements of the teeth that allow for the creation of realistic looking enhancements and prosthetics. Your smile will look more natural after treatment than it did before.
Improved dental health. Digital Smile Design is not merely cosmetic. The procedures included in your Digital Smile Design may also improve the health of your teeth as well as their appearance.
Increased confidence. The results you get from your Digital Smile Design can help you feel more confident and smile more often. Increased confidence can improve your social life, your career, and even your mental health.
Biometric approach. Digital Smile Design takes a biometric approach to dentistry, meaning that we preserve the natural tooth structure as much as possible when making improvements to your smile.
Procedures Offered
Digital Smile Design may include any of the following procedures:
- Teeth whitening. We provide in-office and take-home teeth whitening treatments to remove stains and brighten your smile.
- Dental crowns. A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cover placed over a tooth that is severely damaged or decayed. It renews the appearance of the tooth and allows the natural root to remain intact.
- Porcelain veneers. Veneers are thin porcelain shells that attach to the front of your teeth to conceal imperfections such as stains, uneven lengths, chips, and gaps.
- Cosmetic bonding. Tooth-colored composite material can be used to reshape teeth that are chipped or worn down.

If you are dissatisfied with your smile, either due to minor or severe imperfections, you may be a good candidate for Digital Smile Design. Teeth that are crooked, stained, chipped, worn down, uneven, missing, or have gaps between them can be corrected with Digital Smile Design. Improving your smile and your dental health is easier with digital computer software imaging.
