A recent study conducted at the Institute of Dental Sciences in Uttar Pradesh, India, compared the use of digital smile design (DSD) with conventional smile design methods in cosmetic dentistry. The study enrolled 150 adult patients seeking smile enhancement procedures and randomly assigned them to either the DSD group or the conventional smile design group. Patient satisfaction was measured immediately after the procedure using a visual analog scale, and treatment outcomes were assessed three months later by dental professionals. The results showed that the DSD group reported higher levels of satisfaction and exhibited excellent restoration fit, occlusion, and esthetics compared to the conventional smile design group. The study suggests that integrating digital technology into smile design procedures may have advantages in terms of patient satisfaction and treatment outcomes. [Extracted from the article] |
