Cross-Sectional Study on Self-Perception of Dento-Facial Asymmetry [PDF]
MedicinaBackground and Objectives: Facial symmetry is a key component of facial beauty and attractiveness. However, perfect symmetry is rare, and slight asymmetries, also known as natural asymmetries, are common and contribute to the uniqueness of each face. The

Facial asymmetry: a current review [PDF]
Dental Press Journal of Orthodontics, 2015 The term "asymmetry" is used to make reference to dissimilarity between homologous elements, altering the balance between structures. Facial asymmetry is common in the overall population and is often presented subclinically.

Facial asymmetry in ocular torticollis
Journal of Current Ophthalmology, 2015 Torticollis can arise from nonocular (usually musculoskeletal) and ocular conditions. Some facial asymmetries are correlated with a history of early onset ocular torticollis supported by the presence of torticollis on reviewing childhood photographs ...

Comparing Sensitivity to Facial Asymmetry and Facial Identity [PDF]
i-Perception, 2013 Bilateral symmetry is a facial feature that plays an important role in the aesthetic judgments of faces. The extent to which symmetry contributes to the identification of faces is less clear.

Association between idiopathic scoliosis and facial asymmetry: a gender-balanced case–control study [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThis study aimed to investigate the association between idiopathic scoliosis (IS) and facial asymmetry in a gender-balanced case-control design. Based on power analysis, 100 participants were recruited (50 IS patients: 25 male, 25 female; 50 controls: 25

Influence of body mass index on perceived lower facial asymmetry [PDF]
Scientific ReportsFacial asymmetry plays a crucial role in facial esthetics, and factors such as body mass index may influence its visibility by altering soft tissue thickness, which can lead to differences in how orthodontists, dentists, and laypeople perceive lower ...

Facial Flap Repositioning in Posttraumatic Facial Asymmetry [PDF]
Archives of Craniofacial Surgery, 2016 Perfect facial and body symmetry is an important aesthetic concept which is very difficult, if not impossible, to achieve. Yet, facial asymmetries are commonly encountered by plastic and reconstructive surgeons. Here, we present a case of posttraumatic facial asymmetry successfully treated with a unique concept of facial flap repositioning.

Quantification of three-dimensional facial asymmetry for diagnosis and postoperative evaluation of orthognathic surgery [PDF]
Maxillofacial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2020 Background To evaluate the facial asymmetry, three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) has been used widely. This study proposed a method to quantify facial asymmetry based on 3D-CT.

Facial asymmetry revisited: Part I- diagnosis and treatment planning
Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2018 Facial asymmetry is an individualized characteristic and is commonly observed sub clinically in overall population. However, clinically significant facial asymmetry with associated morphologic, esthetic and stomatognathic problems warrant investigation ...
