Beauty is achieved when using the concept of balance. Several authors have suggested that delicate facial appearance has optimized proportions correlated with the golden proportion. Some authors recommended the application of the golden ratio theory to correlate the successive wideness of the anterior teeth, as observed from the labial angle. It was also revealed that the central incisor width must be in golden proportion to the wideness of the lateral incisor and that the lateral incisor must be in golden proportion to the wideness of the canine whenever examined from the front. Various studies have supported the application of divine proportion in dentistry. The primary objective of this mini-review is to outline the relationship between facial esthetic and divine proportion and highlight the use of rhinoplasty for facial esthetics.
