Abstract: As a basic tool of oral aesthetics, digital smile design has been used by more and more stomatologists for clinical diagnosis and treatment, which can be combined with traditional model technology and other digital tools. It promotes the communication between doctors and patients, doctors and technicians and among doctors, and significantly improves the accuracy, predictability, implementation efficiency and success rate of treatment. In addition to being widely used in the field of oral restoration, digital smile design can be also combined with periodontitis, orthodontics, maxillofacial surgery and other disciplines for comprehensive treatment. This paper reviews the present situation and development of digital smile design in anterior tooth aesthetics.
