Become a DSD Master

• All 3 cases must be planned with the DSD Planning Center and be fully digital and documented.
• At least 1 case must have a 2D design made with the DSDApp (this can be a different case from the Planning Center ones).
• At least 1 case must be submitted to DSD Lab®.

The DSD Faculty will review your cases and give you feedback.

Please note that once you apply to the Mastership process there is no deadline to submit your cases.

• Good-quality photos and video documentation.
• 2D design (with frame), including all views: frontal, lateral, 12 o’clock and occlusal.
• Good-quality documentation of the mock-up. Facial integration. Facial portraits.
• Good-quality Emotional/Motivational portraits and video with mock-up for the patient slide presentation
• Treatment plan: a summary of the treatment plan should be written on the slides.
• Good-quality clinical step documentation of the case (e.g. tooth prep, impression, provisional, perio surgery, implant placement, cementation, ortho, occlusal adjustment).
• Final outcome and final restorations documentation (or final results).
• The quality of the content, documentation, and presentation layout will be evaluated.
• The quality and type of documentation of the finalized cases (photos and videos) must be the same as the pre-op ones, so that a better evaluation can be done –showing the frontal, lateral, 12 o'clock and occlusal view.

• PATIENT INTRO including PRE-OP photo/video documentation.
• PATIENT DOCUMENTATION (x-rays, questionnaire, perio chart, etc.).
• 2D SMILE DESIGN made with DSDApp recording the process and/or the final result.
• DSD PLANNING CENTER IMAGES frame and design in all views (frontal, lateral, 12 o’clock, occlusal). Ideal pre, Ideal post and Motivational design.
• SLIDES to present the mock-up to the patient: before and after, emotional pictures and video.

• CLINICAL PROCEDURE Main clinical steps (gingivoplasty, prep, bonding ortho, provisionals, etc). Plus a screenshot of the prep scan if the case is restorative.
• POST OP PICTURE of each clinical step (after ortho result/after crown lengthening).
• FINAL RESULT Facial and intraoral pictures, and video. The same protocol taken with the pre-op documentation should be repeated in the final.
• QUALITY CONTROL SLIDE Comparative slide with all facial frontal images: DSDApp 2D design (if possible) + DSD Planning Center Motivational design image + Patient with mock-up + DSD Planning Center Ideal design + Provisionals (if restorative case) + Final result.

• Attend a DSD Residency 1 or Residency X (with 20% discount) or DSD Masters Meeting once every three years to stay up to date.
• Submit one case presentation for evaluation each year. Following the same requirements as the Mastership Certification.
• Every three years, you will be required to take a multiple-choice test on the DSD concepts.
