Orthodontic management of uneven gingival margins in patients with healthy or reduced periodontium to improve smile aesthetics [PDF]
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Uneven gingival margins may cause visible asymmetries during smiling and may reflect alterations in the tooth shape and morphology, particularly in cases requiring restorative procedures. Despite being perceived as a minor health condition, presence of uneven gingival margins usually impacts the smile aesthetics and could affect the individual'
