special _ Digital Smile Design I _Case presentation The four cases illustrate a new method of capturing frontal photographs. The first case demonstrates the preparation of six IPS e-max crowns (Ivoclar Vivadent) on teeth #13–23 (Figs. 2–7). The second case presents the mock-up for the treatment plan presentation for a patient with cranio-mandibular dysfunc- tion (Figs. 8–10). The third presents full-arch restoration with Zircon/IPS e-max crowns in the upper jaw (Figs. 11–14). The last case shows the mock-up in a patient with chronic periodontitis (Figs. 15–19). _Conclusion In this short article, I have presented a new method of cap- turing the frontal photographs used in the DSD protocol from Dr Coachman. These changes can help standardise the pho- tographs captured in the va- rious steps of the DSD process and can enhance treatment quality. The DSD concept is convenient for the patient and all members of the treatment team._ _Case 4 Fig. 15_Facial frontal photograph in the headrest, retracted. Fig. 16_Initial situation.
