And smiles are way more powerful than you might think. They can reveal far more in a split-second than words ever could. That’s because they’re a powerful link between our internal character and our external appearance. Until now, you were unable to change how they looked. But our clinicians give you the chance to choose a smile that shows the REAL YOU. Inside and out. ![A young woman with long hair smiling happily to show her new smile after dental treatment with Digital Smile Design](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Optimised_Assets/Morphopsychology/Morpho_2Col_Img.jpg) ![A control panel representing how a patient can get the smile they really want with Digital Smile Design.

Smile Design balances your external appearance with your internal character. Choose which aspect you want to make an authentic first impression on the world. ### The way the shape of our face relates to our personality A DSD smile perfectly matches whatever character traits you want it to. Whether that's your deeper, inner self, your physical features, or a confident new you that you've never shown to the world before. The choice is yours. ### Sealed with a smile The fact is, first impressions are sealed with a smile. And smiles are way more powerful than you might think. They can reveal far more in a split-second than words ever could.    ## The way the shape of our face relates to our personality is known as morphopsychology A DSD smile perfectly matches whatever character traits you want it to. Whether that's your deeper, inner self, your physical features, or a confident new you that you've never shown to the world before. The choice is yours. ## So, what do you want your smile to EXPRESS? To really answer this, you need to understand just what makes a smile. Surprisingly, it’s not just about your teeth. We smile with our mouth, our face and our soul. It’s this unique combination that makes our smiles as individual as we are. This process is completed in three steps... ### 1 Identify your dominant temperament and character ### 2 Discover what your face shape says about you ### 3 Define what you want to express with your smile ![A criss cross line drawing of a human body standing up inside a sphere](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Illustration.svg) When we meet someone for the first time, our brains subconsciously make a split-second decision: do I want to get to know this person more? Or should I run the other way? Does your smile match your internal character? Imagine if you had a smile that made people warm to you. A smile that made them instantly understand the real you and the personality you want to project. **Our clinicians give you the chance to choose a smile that really shows the world the real you. ** Here's how.... ## Your Temperament / Character The scholar Hippocrates identified four main temperaments that most people would be aligned with. They are: ![A sketch of a human face with a blue oval inside it to show its oval shape](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Melancholic-Illuistration.svg) ### Melancholic ![A sketch of a human face with a yellow triangle inside it to show its triangular shape](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Sanguine-Illustration.svg) ### Sanguine ![A sketch of a human face with a red rectangle inside it to show its rectangular shape](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Choleric-Illustration.svg) ### Choleric ![A sketch of a human face with a purple square inside it to show its square shape](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Phlegmatic-Illustration.svg) ### Phlegmatic ## The four temperaments as face shapes ### Oval ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/arrow-right.svg) ### Triangular ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/arrow-right.svg) ### Rectangular ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/arrow-right.svg) ### Square ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/arrow-right.svg) ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/close@3x.svg) ![A sketch of a human face with a blue oval inside it to show its oval shape](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Melancholic-Illuistration.svg) ### Oval #### Melancholic **This face shape is typically matched with the following qualities.** - Organized - Perfectionist - Artistic - Abstractive - Timid - Reserved ![A sketch of a human face with a yellow triangle inside it to show its triangular shape](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Sanguine-Illustration.svg) ### Triangular #### Sanguine **This face shape is typically matched with the following qualities.** - Extroverted - Communicative - Enthusiastic - Dynamic - Impulsive ![A sketch of a human face with a red rectangle inside it to show its rectangular shape](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Choleric-Illustration.svg) ### Rectangular #### Choleric **This face shape is typically matched with the following qualities.** - Determined - Objective - Explosive - Intense - Entrepreneur - Passionate ![A sketch of a human face with a purple square inside it to show its square shape](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Phlegmatic-Illustration.svg) ### Square #### Phlegmatic **This face shape is typically matched with the following qualities.** - Diplomatic - Pacifist - Mystic - Spiritual - Discreet - Conformist ## And it doesn’t stop with the face. It also involves our mouths, our lips, and subtle changes to tooth alignment, shape, color and size. They all have a powerful impact on the way others see us and on the character we portray. ## Even the shapes of individual teeth can look strong, sensible, dynamic or calm And it's at this level where our smile design experts get to work. By understanding your desires, we can create a smile that brings out your inner character more, enhances the character of your face, or balances the two. **Then again, we can also create an entirely new character as well!** ### Oval ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/arrow-right.svg) ### Triangular ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/arrow-right.svg) ### Rectangular ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/arrow-right.svg) ### Square ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/arrow-right.svg) ![](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/close@3x.svg) ![Two oval-shaped front teeth in blue](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Oval-tooth-illustration.svg) ### Oval #### Melancholic **People with oval-shaped teeth typically have:** - Dominant central incisors - Delicate lateral incisors - Round arches ![Two triangular front teeth in yellow](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/triangula-%20tooth-illustration-1.svg) ### Triangular #### Sanguine **People with triangular teeth ****typically have:** - An ascendant smile line - Converging axis - Inclined cusps ![Two rectangular front teeth in red](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/rectangular-tooth-illustration.svg) ### Rectangular #### Choleric **People with rectangular teeth typically have:** - Dominant central incisors - Flat incisal edges - Aggressive cusps - Vertical axis ![Two square-shaped front teeth in purple](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hubfs/Storylines_Brief/Images/Tooth-Square-Illustration.svg) ### SQUARE #### Phlegmatic **People with square-shaped teeth typically have: ** - Lack of incisal dominance - Diverging axis - Horizontal arrangement Our facial analysis experts work with you to design a **smile that meets your expectations exactly.** And our simulations and mock-ups allow you to test and **try before you commit.** ![A man smiling to show how his teeth look before his dental treatment with Digital Smile Design ](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Storylines_Optimised_Assets/Morphopsychology/Morpho_Process_Img_01.jpg?width=360&height=540&name=Morpho_Process_Img_01.jpg) ![A man smiling widely with a computer simulation of his new smile design digitally placed over his own teeth](https://www.digitalsmiledesignclinics.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Storylines_Optimised_Assets/Morphopsychology/Morpho_Process_Img_02.jpg?width=360&height=540&name=Morpho_Process_Img_02.jpg) It’s all about transforming your smile so that it fits with the personality you want to project.
