The aim of this case report was to present an alternative therapeutic combination involving lip repositioning (LR) in the correction of gummy smile (GS). This treatment is less invasive than orthognathic surgery and is highly acceptable to patients, using a modified technique that combines myotomy with the insertion of polyester threads as a physical barrier against relapse.
本病例报告的目的是介绍一种用于矫正露龈笑(GS)的替代治疗组合,即唇部重新定位(LR)。这种治疗方法比正颌手术侵入性小,患者接受度高,采用了一种改良技术,将肌切开术与插入聚酯线相结合,作为防止复发的物理屏障。
