Abstract:
Esthetic dentistry is a field of dentistry that focuses on enhancing the individuals’ esthetic, oral function, and health. One of the tools that have been used is the golden ratio which is a mathematical concept with substantial application in facial and dental esthetics. Some studies showed that this proportion affects people`s esthetic. Therefore, using the golden ratio can be beneficial for improving individuals’ facial and dental esthetic when it combines with other procedures such as implants and gingival recession treatment.
