Purpose: It is easier for us to judge facial deformity when the patient's head is in anatomic position. The purposes of this study were to determine: 1) if a group of expert observers agree more than a group of non-experts on what is the correct anatomical position of the head, 2) whether there is more variation in the alignment of an asymmetrical face compared with a symmetrical one, and 3) whether the alignments of experts are more repeatable than those of nonexperts. Subjects and Methods: Thirty-one orthodontists (experts) and 31 dental students (nonexperts) were recruited in this mixed-model study. They were shown randomly oriented three-dimensional head photographs of a symmetrical adult and an asymmetrical adolescent. In a viewing software,
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
