Case Study: Kathryn’s Smile Transformation with Digital Smile Design
Introduction – Kathryn’s Story
Kathryn came to us with more than just dental concerns — she came with a deep worry about her future smile. She told us:
“I want to protect my bite and teeth from further movement. I feel like my bite has changed as I’ve gotten older – I can feel my teeth touching and grinding, which I never noticed before. My front teeth are beginning to cross over, and the colour has deteriorated. Whitening doesn’t seem to work anymore. I want to do something now before it gets worse, but I don’t want my teeth to look fake.”
She was anxious but hopeful – fearful of ageing teeth, yet dreaming of a natural, confident smile.
Step 1: The Initial Situation
On examination, Dr. Dylan noted:
-
Mild crowding in both upper and lower arches.
-
Gaps around two older implants in the lower jaw.
-
An old composite filling on the upper central incisor.
-
A defective crown needing replacement.
-
Marked anterior wear from her bite – a red flag for future tooth destruction.
At this point, Kathryn’s fear became real: without treatment, her teeth would continue to wear down, risking function and aesthetics. This was the turning point – she understood that doing nothing meant more damage, while treatment offered preservation and transformation.

Step 2: Smile Design
Kathryn’s emotional shift began here.
Dr. Dylan listened closely and designed her ideal smile using Digital Smile Design (DSD) tools – Invisalign and Smile Architect software.
-
Teeth were aligned into the optimal aesthetic position.
-
Crowding was corrected, arch expanded, and tongue space improved, reducing long-term airway risk.
-
The front teeth’s functional relationship was restored to minimise future wear.
-
Implant spaces were consolidated for balance.
-
Kathryn’s orthodontic and restorative plans were designed together – a complete, personalised roadmap.
For Kathryn, this wasn’t just a treatment plan – it was a vision of her future self. She could see how each step addressed her fears while moving closer to her dream smile.


Step 3: Smile Test Drive
After Invisalign, Kathryn previewed her new smile with our Smile Test Drive.
When she saw her future smile for the first time, she said:
“I can’t believe this is me. I love it – it looks natural, exactly what I hoped for.”
This was the emotional high point of her journey – the moment hope turned into excitement and anticipation.

Step 4: Contouring with Composite Bonding
To complete her smile, we:
-
Enhanced her front teeth with non-invasive composite bonding (no drilling, no grinding, no extractions).
-
Replaced the defective crown.
-
Improved the shape, symmetry, and shade for a natural, harmonious look.
-
Strengthened her bite for long-term health.
-
Preserved her old implant crowns (avoiding unnecessary risk, but leaving future options open).
Every tooth was respected, preserved, and refined – the perfect blend of aesthetics and protection.

Step 5: The Result
Kathryn now has exactly what she hoped for:
✅ A natural, brighter, more balanced smile.
✅ Improved function and bite protection.
✅ Peace of mind knowing her teeth are safe for the future.
Most importantly, Kathryn is smiling with confidence again – no anxiety, no second-guessing, just pride in her natural-looking transformation.
