“…Estudos recentes confirmam correlações positivas entre estresse, depressão e doença periodontal, demonstrando ligações convincentes entre depressão / estresse e perda dentária; estresse / depressão e negligência da higiene oral; e elevados níveis de cortisol e profundidade da bolsa / perda do dente.

A estética facial pode ser gravemente afetada pelas características dos tecidos que compõem o periodonto. A toxina botulínica do tipo A é amplamente utilizada na odontologia como uma opção terapêutica no tratamento do sorriso gengival. Sua ação têm-se mostrado eficiente não apenas na correção da hiperfunção do lábio superior, como também na melhora da qualidade de vida social e psicológica do paciente. A arquitetura gengival associada a defeitos ósseos e a perda de suporte periodontal podem resultar em uma alteração no contorno da margem gengival, apicalização dos níveis e perda da papilas nas áreas interproximais. O uso da toxina botulínica em pacientes que apresentam defeitos estéticos periodontais que não podem ser corrigidos pode ser considerado como uma opção de tratamento para os periodontistas na finalização de seus casos. O objetivo deste estudo é realizar uma revisão de literatura sobre a utilização da toxina botulínica na contenção da elevação do lábio superior, para a correção do sorriso gengival e na minimização do aparecimento de defeitos estéticos causados pela perda de suporte periodontal.
