Abstract: Digital Smile Design (DSD) is a cutting-edge method that improves dental treatment planning by combining digital technology with both aesthetic and functional analysis. DSD supports interdisciplinary collaboration among specialists, including orthodontists, prosthodontists, and implantologists, leading to comprehensive and customized treatment plans. The digital workflow includes steps such as image capturing, facial and dental analysis, 3D modeling, and mock-ups, which guide practitioners in achieving optimal results. With advancements in artificial intelligence, intraoral scanning, and CAD/CAM technology, DSD continues to evolve, making smile transformations more accessible and precise. The technique significantly improves efficiency, accuracy, and predictability in aesthetic dentistry, setting a new standard in patient-centered care. Keywords: Smile Design, Digital Smile Design
