A predictable digital workflow for minimally invasive anterior esthetic tooth rehabilitation with global diagnosis principle has been introduced in this report.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Clinical Considerations</jats:title><jats:p>A 23‐year‐old female patient with the chief complaint of unsatisfied shape and color of her anterior teeth visited our hospital for restorative consultation. Three‐dimensional Digital Smile Design was used to integrate into a virtual patient model to provide rehabilitative esthetic planning with global diagnostic principle. 3D printer was used for communication and guidance preparation. Digital impression and computer‐aided design/computer‐aided manufacturing technologies were adopted for making the morphology of designed restorations that can precisely transfer to definitive prostheses. The esthetics, functional occlusion, and gingival tissues remained stable for over a follow‐up period of 3 years. No signs of fractures within the restorations were observed.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p>Minimally invasive anterior esthetic tooth rehabilitation can be readily achieved using a predictable digital workflow with global diagnosis principle.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Clinical Significance</jats:title><jats:p>This digital approach might promote diagnosis, enhance communication, reduce processing time, and increase the predictability of final outcomes with high comfort and esthetic effect.</jats:p></jats:sec>
