Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Amount of incisor display at smile. Timepoint: Measuring the amount of incisor display at smile 1- before starting orthodontic treatment 2- after completing orthodontic treatment. Method of measurement: With the help of a gauge or caliper in millimeters. Additionally, the smile line or lip line index, which indicates the visibility of the upper incisors and the raising of the upper lip during a smile, and divides patients into high, average, and low categories; will be used. While smiling in the high type, the front teeth of the maxilla are seen with a significant amount of gum. In average type, maxillary anterior teeth along with only interdental gum and in low type, less than two thirds of maxillary anterior teeth are visible during smile.;Smile arc. Timepoint: Determining the type of smile arc at 1- before starting orthodontic treatment 2- after completing orthodontic treatment. Method of measurement: The smile arc will be placed visually by the evaluator in one of three categories: consonant (harmony of the curvature of the upper front teeth with the arch of the lower lip), non-consonant (including flat and reverse) and not-available (in cases where the front of the maxilla is covered by the lower lip).;Labiodental relationship of the lower lip and maxillary anterior teeth. Timepoint: Determining the labiodental relationship of the lower lip and maxillary anterior teeth at 1- before starting orthodontic treatment 2- after completing orthodontic treatment. Method of measurement: It was identified by evaluating the distance between the superior border of the lower lip and inferior border of the maxillary anterior teeth. The relationship may be divided into lower lip “slightly touching” the lower border of maxillary anterior teeth, “not touching” the teeth or “covering” the anterior teeth.;Overbite measurement in millimeters. Timepoint: Measuring the amount of overbite 1- before starting orthodontic treatment 2- after completing orthodontic treatment. Method of mea
