, 2021 AbstractAny abnormality of the soft or hard tissues of the face can lead to asymmetry. This could be a consequence of a congenital anomaly, a developmental or an acquired defect. Asymmetry can be progressive in nature, while those acquired due to trauma or ablative surgeries are non- progressive.

Socioeconomic Status Is Not Related with Facial Fluctuating Asymmetry: Evidence from Latin-American Populations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The expression of facial asymmetries has been recurrently related with poverty and/or disadvantaged socioeconomic status. Departing from the developmental instability theory, previous approaches attempted to test the statistical relationship between the ...

The treatment of facial asymmetry: Review [PDF]
Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2017 Some degree of congenital or acquired asymmetry is normal and universal. Significant facial asymmetry, however, causes both aesthetic, as well as functional problems. The comprehensive management of facial symmetry is scarcely addressed.1-5 Differing etiologies, heterogeneous material, and different ages of patients tend to produce fragmentary reports,

Research advances in maxillofacial characteristics, classification and treatment of facial asymmetry with skeletal Class Ⅲ malocclusion [PDF]
Kouqiang yixueWith 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.

Variation at genes influencing facial morphology are not associated with developmental imprecision in human faces. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 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
