Sorriso gengival, Etiologia, Diagnóstico, TratamentoResumo
O sorriso gengival (SG) é a exposição excessiva de gengiva durante o sorriso, sua etiologia é multifatorial, e o tratamento desta condição representa uma demanda frequente na prática clínica odontológica. Este estudo teve como objetivo revisar a literatura acerca das principais causas, diagnóstico e opções de tratamento do SG, propondo um direcionamento clínico que auxilie na tomada de decisão do cirurgião-dentista. Foi realizada uma revisão narrativa da literatura, cujos resultados evidenciam que o diagnóstico deve ser criterioso, a fim de definir a melhor abordagem terapêutica.
