Sumario:This article demonstrates the noninvasive means of correction of gummy smile and deep bite by using mini-implants in a relapsed patient. Intrusion of the maxillary arch was achieved by using mini-implants in the anterior and posterior region. Significant reduction in the gingival and incisal display was seen with improved smile esthetics and ideal overbite and overjet by the end of the treatment. The aim of the article is to present a case where gummy smile was effectively treated by mini-implants without undergoing invasive surgical procedures.
