The Algorithm for Examining Patients with a Gingival Smile
Abstract
The Gummy Smile Index is made easier to calculate and key characteristics for doctors to consider in patients with gummy smiles are highlighted by the outlined methodology for diagnosing gummy smiles, which is based on the process of clinical examination and investigation. It contains clinical measurement data as well as anamnesis data (patient's age and gender). The outcomes acquired make a substantial contribution to our knowledge of and ability to treat gummy grins. They help to improve dental and orthopaedic treatment techniques and create new avenues for research and development in this area. We have no doubt that our research will be widely used in clinical settings and help a large number of gummy smile sufferers.
