摘要

Copyright © 2018 Tridapalli Steinbach.Objective: The purpose of this integrative review was assembling information about the golden ratio, improving a different sight to the theme. Methods: Original articles were retrieved on databases Scielo, PubMed, Lilacs and Web of Science selecting proper articles published between the years of 2006- 2017. Results: 55 articles were included, in which 42 of the findings corresponded to aesthetic perception and 40 to golden ratio and ethnical groups. Conclusion: The findings suggest that there's no relationship between golden ratio and natural teeths and this ratio isn't a decisive factor to ensuring the smile attractiveness, however, if this proportion were individually applied for each patient, can become a useful guide.
