Abstract(s)
O sorriso gengival caracteriza-se por uma exposição excessiva de gengiva durante o sorriso.
Esta característica provoca uma desarmonia na estética facial, sendo capaz de afetar a
autoestima do paciente, interferindo nas suas interações sociais e profissionais.
Antes de definir qual o tipo de tratamento adequado é essencial realizar um correto diagnóstico,

melhorias estéticas no sorriso.
Esta revisão bibliográfica tem como objetivo avaliar o potencial da toxina botulínica no
tratamento do sorriso gengival, bem como compreender quando e de que forma esta pode ser
utilizada.
