The enigma of facial asymmetry:is there a gender specific pattern of facedness? [PDF]
Although facial symmetry correlates with facial attractiveness, human faces are often far from symmetrical with one side frequently being larger than the other (Kowner, 1998). Smith (2000) reported that male and female faces were asymmetrical in opposite

Research advances in maxillofacial characteristics, classification and treatment of facial asymmetry with skeletal Class Ⅲ malocclusion [PDF]
With the growing demand for facial aesthetics, facial asymmetry has emerged as a prominent clinical concern. Skeletal Class Ⅲ malocclusion could not only affect facial aesthetics, but also have an adverse effect on oral function.

The accuracy of three-dimensional prediction of soft tissue changes following the surgical correction of facial asymmetry: an innovative concept [PDF]
The accuracy of three-dimensional (3D) predictions of soft tissue changes in the surgical correction of facial asymmetry was evaluated in this study. Preoperative (T1) and 6–12-month postoperative (T2) cone beam computed tomography scans of 13 patients ...

Variation at genes influencing facial morphology are not associated with developmental imprecision in human faces. [PDF]
Facial asymmetries are commonly used as a proxy for human developmental imprecision resulting from inbreeding, and thus reduced genetic heterozygosity. Several environmental factors influence human facial asymmetry (e.g., health care, parasites), but the

Assessing the outcome of orthognathic surgery by three-dimensional soft tissue analysis [PDF]
Studies of orthognathic surgery often focus on pre-surgical versus post-surgical changes in facial shape. In contrast, this study provides an innovative comparison between post-surgical and control shape. Forty orthognathic surgery patients were included,

Non-Syndromal Facial Asymmetry [PDF]
Absolute facial symmetry of the two halves of the face is of very rare occurrence and some degree of right/left variation is not an exception but a rule. Although each person shares with the rest of the population, many characteristics, there are enough differences to make each human being a unique individual.

Facial Asymmetry-Demystifying the Entity. [PDF]
Perfect facial symmetry has always been considered a hallmark of beauty, but, is almost elusive in nature. However, clinically evident skeletal facial asymmetry on the other hand is quite common, which can result from congenital deformities, developmental abnormalities, secondary to maxillofacial trauma and it is an entity maxillofacial surgeons deal ...

Frontal Facial Symmetry Detection Using Eigenvalue Method [PDF]
Facial symmetry is correspondence of face components on the both sides of face, left and right of a dividing line or about a center or an axis. Most of the research use face component like eyes, nose and ears component to identify facial symmetry.

Consistent left gaze bias in processing different facial cues [PDF]
While viewing faces, humans often demonstrate a natural gaze bias towards the left visual field, that is, the right side of the viewee’s face is often inspected first and for longer periods.
