The treatment of facial asymmetry: Review [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances 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]

open access: yesKouqiang yixue
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.

Analysis of Facial Asymmetry [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Craniofacial Surgery, 2015
Facial symmetry is an important component of attractiveness. However, functional symmetry is favorable to aesthetic symmetry. In addition, fluctuating asymmetry is more natural and common, even if patients find such asymmetry to be noticeable. However, fluctuating asymmetry remains difficult to define. Several studies have shown that a certain level of

Comparison Between Facilitating and Suppressing Facial Emotional Expressions Using Frontal EEG Asymmetry

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2020
The prefrontal cortex plays a key role in emotional state. Electroencephalography (EEG) studies have reported relationships between frontal asymmetry in the alpha band, emotional state, and emotion-related motivation.

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

open access: yesPLoS 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

Dual nerve transfer for facial reanimation

open access: yesArchives of Medicine and Health Sciences, 2021
The facial nerve is the 7th cranial nerve and carries nerve fibers which control facial movement and expression. This nerve also carries fibers that are involved for the production of taste from the anterior 2/3rd of the tongue and tears from the ...

An Orthognathıc Approach To Facıal Asymmery

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Orthodontics, 1990
Facial asymmetry which occurs as a result of different effects, may be seen at diffierent parts of the face. The jaws are frequently the cause of facial asymmetry. Especially, the mandible is a major contributor to facial asymmetry.

Facial hemihypertrophy and facial hemiatrophy: Report of 2 cases

open access: yesJournal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology, 2008
Facial hemihypertrophy and facial hemiatrophy are rare developmental anomalies. These conditions are characterized by an asymmetric growth of one or more parts of the tissues on one side of the face. The facial asymmetry may be total or partial.
