Effect of Botox Before Modified Lip Repositioning and Modified Lip Repositioning Only in Relapse of the Excessive Gingival Display Within One Year
The growing interest of patients in esthetic procedures, as well as the development of less invasive protocols in dentistry, has promoted the development of treatment plans that include stability, harmony, and function in orofacial rehabilitation.
Poor esthetics interfere with an individual's personal, social, and professional relationships and is an individual consideration that varies according to the patient's age, time, region, and culture concerning what is considered beautiful.
People are increasingly being inspired to get more corrective and cosmetic surgeries as an esthetic smile becomes a more fundamental component of what it means to be beautiful.
There are several variables that affect how appealing and esthetic a smile is Esthetic perception varies according to cultural, societal, environmental, and individual factors like experience and educational level Previous studies have shown that a smile with less gingival display (GD) is viewed as more beautiful, with dental professionals being more critical of gingival presentation than laypeople According to research by several authors, the ideal GD ranges from 1 to 3 mm While many factors influence how pleasant a smile is seen, excessive GD (EGD), sometimes referred to as a gummy smile, is regarded as a key factor in smile analysis and one of the main issues connected to an unsatisfactory dental smile.
To reduce the relapse associated with repositioning surgery and to provide a lasting treatment without the need for reapplication, as in the case of the toxin, a combined treatment using the toxin preoperatively was considered.
