Every smile is unique. That's why treatment planning should be too. Using Digital Smile Design technology, Dr Dunn combines facial analysis, photography and digital planning to create a visual representation of your proposed treatment. This helps you better understand your options and how cosmetic dentistry may be tailored to your individual features and goals.
As one of Australia's first Digital Smile Design Centres, Macquarie Street Dental offers a visual approach to treatment planning. In suitable cases, patients may also be able to preview a mock-up of their proposed smile design before treatment begins. Treatment risks, recovery and considerations can be found here.
Cosmetic dentistry starts with a one-hour Personal Consultation with Dr Dunn. This is an opportunity to discuss your goals and explore the treatment options that may be suitable for you. Where appropriate, Dr Dunn may use Digital Smile Design technology to help you visualise how different treatments could be approached for your individual features.
Following your consultation, you'll receive a personalised treatment plan outlining recommended options, indicative costs and expected treatment timelines.
For suitable patients, Dr Dunn's Smile Test Drive may also be available – a two-appointment process that allows you to try in a mock-up of your proposed smile design to give you a realistic sense of how it may look and feel before treatment begins. Additional fees apply.

Dr Dunn has been helping patients explore cosmetic dental treatment options for more than 25 years.

A Personal Consultation allows you to discuss your goals, explore suitable treatment options and gain a better understanding of what treatment may involve.
Digital Smile Design (DSD) is a treatment planning tool used in cosmetic dentistry. It allows Dr Dunn to create a visual representation of a proposed treatment approach using detailed digital modelling of a patient's teeth and jaw. This helps patients better understand their treatment options and how different approaches could be tailored to their individual features before treatment begins. Macquarie Street Dental was one of Australia's first Digital Smile Design centres.
The Smile Test Drive gives suitable patients the opportunity to try in a temporary mock-up of their proposed smile design before committing to treatment. The process is carried out over two appointments across two to three weeks and may look something like this:
First appointment
Dr Dunn will assess your teeth and smile, take impressions, and capture photographs and videos. Using Digital Smile Design technology, a visual representation of a proposed treatment approach is created and used to guide the development of your try-in model.
Second appointment
The temporary mock-up is placed over your existing teeth so you can gain a realistic sense of how the proposed smile design may look and feel before making a treatment decision.
Please note the Smile Test Drive is not available for all patients and treatments. Dr Dunn will advise whether this option is suitable for you at your Personal Consultation.
A cosmetic dental treatment plan may involve a single treatment or a combination of procedures, depending on your individual needs and goals. This might include porcelain veneers, dental crowns, dental implants, Invisalign and teeth whitening. Dr Dunn will use facial analysis and Digital Smile Design technology to recommend the most appropriate treatment options for your individual features and goals.
