| 520 | |a Gummy smile is a quite frequently found esthetic alteration characterized by excessive display of gingiva during smiling. Several causes have been implicated in the literature, but a dearth of clinical decision-making process has been found in the surgical treatment of excessive gingival display.

The clinical observation at 1 month postoperatively revealed restoration of natural smile with 1-2 mm of facial gingival display. The outcome seems to suggest that this proposed decision-making process can provide valid treatment options for gummy smile cases. | ||
