Abstract
Background: The concept of digital dentistry has become more popular, and it has been possible to obtain both aesthetic and functional results with a wide range of indications. One of the areas where virtual designs are used most frequently is smile design. By using smile design software or systems, it is possible to obtain optimum aesthetic results, especially in patients with high aesthetic expectations. Case Report: A 31-year-old female patient applied to the clinic complaining of diastemas and deformities between her maxillary anterior and lateral incisors. After her intraoral and extraoral photographs were taken, digital smile design was applied. A laser assisted gingivectomy was performed with a gingivectomy guide that was designed digitally. Conclusion: In aesthetic treatment applications, digital tools are used in the planning, design and production of both predictable and more harmonious restorations.
