- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Measuring amount of vertical impaction of anterior maxilla after performing labial maxillary cotricotomy and activation of functional loading 3 months Measuring amount of linear impaction (in millimeters) to evaluate validity of compression osteogenesis in treating gummy smile of a skeletal etiology ( due to increased anterior maxilla height) after performing labia maxillary corticotomy and activating functional loading using power chain elastics anchored on transmucosal mini- screws.
