| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to prove that the propolis aqueous extract mouthwash has good action in the healing process of gingival tissues, that it presents an antiplaque effect compatible with 0.12% chlorhexidine and that the topical use of propolis positively influences in the reduction of postoperative pain in gummy smile correction surgeries. As well as proving that low-power laser therapy has a beneficial effect on healing and postoperative pain control in patients undergoing surgery to correct gummy smile. | — |
