Background and Aim: Facial features are different depending on gender and race. These features are usually studied in profile view. Angular evaluation of the facial soft tissue profile is important in males and females of different races for correct diagnosis and treatment planning. For this reason, in the present study, we measured the facial profile angles in young adults in Zanjan. Material...

  Background :Soft tissue profile can be widely different in various populations. Furthermore, this profile can be also continues to change throughout life. However, there are few studies that quantitatively evaluate the soft tissue profile in Iranian population. In order to determine normal reference values of facial parts in our populations, we aimed to measure standards for facial soft tissu...

i ntroduction: we studied and measured facial parameters of 160 students,aged 22-24 years attended at sahand university of technology in northwest of iran. mat erial and methods: in this paper, six linear and six angular facial parameters are measured. these parameters are measured in frontal and profile facial images. the measured values are the mean and standard deviation (sd) of distance bet...

Objective: To evaluate the influence of age, gender, sagittal occlusal relationship, facial pattern and 8 facial profile measures on profile aesthetics. Methods: Contingency tables, chi-square test and Cramer’s coefficient were used to evaluate the possible association between the scores assigned by 32 examiners (14 orthodontists, 12 laypeople and 6 artists) to the aesthetics of the profile of ...
