“…Differences in measures and facial proportions are demonstrated in studies with populations composed of different races 3,4,9,[11][12][13]25,26 . Authors argue that the findings and the variation of measures in the studies may be related to the large Brazilian miscegenation 13 .…”

“…That study provided reference for the height of face (g-gn) those obtained for the non-white subjects, a study infers that black individuals have a slight tendency to show a vertical pattern compared to whites, the same should be applied for anthropometric measurements 27 . In a different study 9 that aimed to compare the means of the dimensions of the face between the children from the city of São Paulo with the normal standards published for the North American population, lower averages were found in children from São Paulo in all age groups and both genders. In comparing the population of North Americans with children from Santiago, Chile, between five and eight years oge, there was no difference between the populations, but the author points out that the methodology differed 28 .…”

“…All methodological steps for collection of anthropometric orofacial measurements as recommended in the literature were considered: precise location and palpation before marking the anthropometric points -which was performed with appropriate pencil; use of the caliper without pressing its tips on skin; examiner seating in front of the subject under direct artificial light; subject seating with his head in a natural position and with feet flat on the floor; subject with the teeth in occlusion in the usual position without maximum intercuspation [3][4][5]9,13 .…”

OBJETIVO: obter as medidas antropométricas orofaciais em crianças pré-escolares de três a cinco anos e realizar a correlação com idade cronológica, gênero, raça e hábitos orais. MÉTODOS: estudo transversal com 93 crianças selecionadas por meio de amostra de conveniência consecutiva. Os responsáveis responderam a um questionário sobre os hábitos orais e as crianças foram submetidas a uma avaliação odontológica e antropométrica da face. O nível de significância utilizado foi p<0,05. RESULTADOS: as médias das medidas antropométricas orofaciais foram descritas. Houve diferença estatística nas medidas de altura da face (p<0,001), terço médio da face (p<0,001), canto externo do olho até a comissura labial esquerda/direita (p<0,001) e lábio inferior (p=0,015) nas faixas etárias. O gênero masculino apresentou medidas superiores na altura de face (p=0,003), terço inferior da face (p<0,001), lábio superior (p=0,001) e lábio inferior (p<0,001). Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante na altura do lábio superior em sujeitos não brancos (p=0,03). A presença de hábitos orais não influenciou os resultados. O aleitamento materno exclusivo por seis meses influenciou o aumento da medida de terço médio (p=0,022) e da altura da face (p=0,037). CONCLUSÃO: as médias descritas neste estudo foram superiores aos padrões encontrados em outros estudos. As médias orofaciais aumentaram conforme a idade. Houve superioridade nas medidas para o gênero masculino e para as crianças não brancas, mas não para presença de hábitos orais.

The oral cavity’s importance in defining the facial region makes it a primary feature for forensic facial reconstruction (FFR). The aim of this study is to construct a pattern of reference for dimensions and proportions of the lips and establish parameters that may help estimate the vermilion borders’ height dimensions and the mouth’s width. By means of cone beam computed tomography, divided into two samples: sample 1 (n = 322; 137 male, 185 female) verified the linear distances delimited by anatomical landmarks in soft tissue. The sample 2 (n = 108; 40 male, 68 female), verified the proportions among the height of the vermilion borders, width of the mouth, and linear distances between craniometric landmarks in hard tissues, both from a Brazilian database. The measurements were completed using OsiriX, and the results were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics at a level of significance of 5%. The height of the vermilion borders corresponded to approximately 26% of the width of the mouth. The width of the mouth increased over the course of time in men and remained stable in women. In men, a mean intercanine distance of 75% of the total mouth’s width was found; for women, it was 80%. The parameters of the relations between soft and hard tissues in the oral cavity region presented that the distance between landmarks ID-SM (Infradentale-Supramentale) corresponded to 55% of the height of the vermilion borders of the mouth for both sexes, while the distance between landmarks PM-SD (Philtrum medium-Supradentale) corresponded to 85% in men and 88% in women. Mean values of 97% of the width of the mouth in women and 93% in men were attributed to the distance between the mentonian foramina. It was not possible to estimate the height of the labial vermilion borders by the bone measurements, FIs-Fli (Foramen incisivus superius-inferius) and NS-GN (Nasospinale-Gnathion). Profound knowledge of the anatomy and morphology of the oral cavity may contribute to increasing the precision of FFRs and help with human identification.
