Smile can express a sense of affection, joy, happiness, kindness, and confidence. Dentistry is one such profession which deals with smile esthetics. Smile esthetics is a type of subjective evaluation. Few clinicians believe that smile harmony is determined by only the shape, position, and color of teeth.

Excessive exposure of gums while smiling is referred to as gummy smile. %0 Journal Article %I Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications %@ 2278-344X
