At DSD, we believe that transparency empowers smarter decisions. When you’re making decisions about your clinical growth, clear information matters. Understanding the full cost of a course or service upfront allows you to plan, budget and move forward knowing exactly what to expect and how to maximize your investment.
In this article, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about the cost of the DSD Provider Plan: what’s included, what influences the final price and how it helps you move from learning the DSD methodology to implementing it successfully in your clinic.
A quick recap of the DSD Provider course
The DSD Provider course is the gateway for dentists who want to start using the DSD methodology in a practical and impactful way. It’s offered in two formats: a 2-day in-person course or a comprehensive online training you can complete at your own pace.
In both formats, you’ll learn how to:
Improve communication with your team, your lab and your patients
Simplify your approach to treatment planning
Deliver emotional visually driven presentations to increase case acceptance
Implement the core DSD concepts in your day-to-day clinical routine
Achieve more predictable, consistent results from your dental lab
The goal is simple: to help you offer better dentistry with more precision, more predictability, and more confidence.
Once you’ve completed the course, you’ll be invited to join the DSD Provider Plan which gives you direct access to the DSD Planning Center. This is the perfect next step to start applying everything you’ve learned in real cases with expert support.

What do you get with the DSD Provider plan?
The DSD Provider Plan is a membership plan that allows you to begin working with the DSD Planning Center and Lab to offer smile designs and digital guided dentistry solutions to your patients. It is designed for dentists of any specialty who want to simplify complex planning and improve clinical outcomes.
As a DSD Provider member, you gain access to:
The DSD Planning Center for expert case planning, including diagnostic designs, treatment sequencing and procedure coordination.
Digitally guided dentistry tools that bring precision and predictability to your treatments.
Visual and educational resources to enhance patient communication and increase treatment acceptance.
Streamlined communication with your lab for faster, clearer collaboration.
A team of top specialists working with you behind the scenes.
This is not just about better cases—it’s about giving you the structure and tools to deliver them consistently.
Provider plan members can submit unlimited cases to the DSD Planning Center and purchase planning and manufacture products for these cases.
What goes into the cost of treatment planning services?
When planning your patient cases, you typically face two main costs:
1. Treatment planning
2. Manufacturing of the final restorations
Working with separate providers can lead to duplicated efforts, miscommunication and extra time coordinating between teams.
The DSD Planning Center offers an alternative: both treatment planning and manufacturing in one place. This all-in-one solution allows you to move seamlessly from digital plan to physical outcome with fewer touchpoints, less back-and-forth and a team that already understands every detail of your case. The result? Significant time savings, fewer errors and better cost-efficiency.
And while DSD is known for its interdisciplinary planning - the big-picture strategy that connects all dental specialties - we also support you with procedure planning once the overall plan is approved. That means you don’t just get a roadmap; you get hands-on guidance for each step of the journey.
