Abstract

Orthodontics is a dental specialty whose objective is the search for the ideal occlusion from a functional and aesthetic perspective. Dental or peribuccal aesthetics can also favour facial aesthetics. By the ample analysis of the face and the oral cavity, concepts of Visagism can be used, which favours attractiveness of the people. Based on the concepts of Geometric Visagism, we particularize beauty according to the biotype of the patient, promoting harmonization of their physical body, facial and dentogingival characteristics, promoting attractiveness and favoring the perception of facial aesthetics even during the orthodontic treatment phase. The purpose of this article is to present the association of these concepts - Visagism, Attractiveness and Orofacial Harmonization - in a skeletal Angle Class II orthodontic patient who presented with excessive gummy smile.
