“…In this study, the most influential facial views and components used to judge facial esthetics were significantly different between the three evaluator groups, which is consistent with a previous study [ 30 ]. It is quite possible that esthetic perceptions are different among the evaluators depending on their training, educational background, and knowledge [ 2 , 8 , 15 , 17 , 20 , 30 ].…”

“…The goal of orthodontic treatment should be to create an ideal or functional occlusion and a well-balanced face. This raises a couple of questions, including “Do dental professionals and laypeople have the same perception of which facial esthetics look best?” and, if not, “Which perceptions, those of the professionals or patients, should prevail in treatment planning for orthodontic treatment?” [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ].…”

“…Two-dimensional (2D) soft tissue facial or cephalometric analyses have been performed to aid in diagnosis and treatment planning to compare soft tissue profiles, optimize facial attractiveness, and investigate soft tissue adaptability to hard tissue [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 13 , 15 , 16 , 18 , 19 , 20 ]. Although these studies have improved the understanding of facial attractiveness, there was a vulnerability in their evaluation of facial attractiveness because it was investigated primarily in a profile view.…”

The aim of this study was to determine the factors that affect esthetic preference regarding the perceived facial attractiveness of young Korean female adults with a normal skeletal pattern using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). After reorienting the CBCT images of 40 young Korean female adults, three-dimensional (3D) measurements were analyzed, and five 3D facial images were digitally constructed. A computer-based questionnaire was used to determine perceived facial attractiveness by scoring from 1 (very unattractive) to 10 (very attractive). Esthetic perception and the most influential facial view and component were examined and compared by orthodontists, general dentists, and laypeople to evaluate facial attractiveness. Compared to the unattractive group, the attractive group had significantly greater values for Pog-NB, L1SI-FH, U lip thickness, L lip-U lip, and Nasolabial angle, along with significantly lower values for U1SI-FH and Cant of U lip; the attractive group also had a more retruded U1MP (p < 0.01), L1MP (p < 0.01), U lip (p < 0.05), and L lip (p < 0.01) relative to N, as well as a more retruded U lip (p < 0.05) and L lip (p <0.001) relative to esthetic lines. Orthodontists and general dentists were more likely to consider the profile view. When evaluating facial attractiveness, orthodontists and laypeople more often focused on the lips and chin. When evaluating facial attractiveness, all evaluators showed a high esthetic preference for retroclination and retrusion of the incisors and lips, but there were some differences in how they perceived facial attractiveness. Therefore, the ultimate perception of facial attractiveness needs to be based on the esthetic perceptions of laypeople.

“…11 A study conducted about the perception of profile changes in females representing class II div I malocclusion as assessed by orthodontists and general public concluded that the orthodntists prefer the straight profile in constrast to the laypersons who prefers more convex profile. 12 Another study carried out on saudi population suggested increased tolerance of lay persons regarding smile aesthetics compared to the orthodontists and restorative dentists. 13 The results of the study conducted on the local population indicated significant difference (P-value 0.001) between orthodontist's and patient's ranking of preferred facial profiles.…”

OBJECTIVE: The research was conducted to determine the correlation between Soft tissue angle of facial convexity (SA-FC) and angle ANB in skeletal class II malocclusion. The outcome of the study will help in determining if the routine consideration of ANB angle while the lack of defined thresholds for convexity of soft tissue profile justified for choosing the treatment modality. METHODOLOGY: Lateral cephalograms of 141 skeletal class II subjects (ANB>4°) were obtained. Angular parameters including soft tissue angle of facial convexity (SA-FC) and angle ANB were determined. Gender dimorphism of the variables was assessed by Mann Whitney U test. Correlation between SA-FC and angle ANB were determined utilizing Spearman's correlation coefficient. RESULTS: The angle SA-FC and ANB depicted moderately positive correlation (r = 0.662, p<0.001). Gender dimorphism exists with increased mean value of ANB (7.88±1.90) and SA-FC (23.22±7.61) in females. CONCLUSIONS: Angle SA-FC depicts moderately positive correlation with angle ANB among skeletal class II subjects, hence suggesting the need of soft tissue guidelines along-with hard tissue parameters for selection of treatment modality. KEYWORDS: Cephalometry, Malocclusion, Diagnosis, soft tissue, correlation.

“…Comprehensive assessment of facial aesthetics requires consideration not only of changes in dental and skeletal parameters but also the integration of the patient's overall facial morphology and baseline characteristics [3]. Facial morphological changes are closely related to aesthetic perception, as they interact and collectively determine an individual's facial aesthetic evaluation [4,5]. Therefore, evaluating the impact of orthodontically induced facial morphological changes is of great value for understanding changes in aesthetic perception and guiding treatment planning and decision-making.…”

Background The profound influence of orthodontic interventions on facial aesthetics has been a topic of increasing interest. This study delves into the intricate interplay between orthodontic treatments, quantified facial feature alterations, and aesthetic perceptions. Methods A comprehensive cohort of clinical images capturing pre- and post-orthodontic treatment stages was meticulously curated, encompassing a sample size of N = 73. Employing advanced phenotypic grouping techniques, facial landmarks were meticulously identified, providing a nuanced understanding of facial changes. The subsequent aesthetic assessments, executed by a panel of experts, underwent rigorous statistical analyses to unveil the correlations between orthodontic modalities, facial feature transformations, and aesthetic appraisals. Results Notably robust consensus emerged among expert evaluators regarding facial aesthetic judgments, showcasing the highest consistency in lateral views. Intriguingly, orthodontic interventions yielded a substantial elevation in overall aesthetic ratings, with lateral and comprehensive evaluations particularly underscored. Among the subjects subjected to premolar extraction, a significantly more pronounced enhancement in aesthetic outcomes was evident. Distinct facial landmarks, such as pg.sm.hori and pg.n.ls, exhibited substantive alterations that demonstrated significant associations with heightened aesthetic evaluations. Moreover, a comprehensive multifactor analysis underscored the sustained significance of pg.sm.hori, positioning it as a pivotal factor influencing aesthetic outcomes within orthodontic practices. Conclusions This exhaustive study provides a comprehensive exploration of the intricate relationship between orthodontic interventions and facial aesthetics, capitalizing on the amalgamation of clinical images and expert judgments. The findings not only underscore the substantial impact of orthodontic treatments, particularly from lateral perspectives, but also emphasize the pivotal role of specific facial landmarks like pg.sm.hori and pg.n.ls in achieving augmented aesthetic results. These insights not only enrich the clinical decision-making process but also pave the way for further research endeavors aimed at unraveling the complex tapestry of facial aesthetics within the realm of orthodontics.
