“…As opposed to the study conducted by Hockley et al, 4 According to Scott and Johnston, 11 when conducting a study on the impact of orthodontic treatments with and without pre-molar extractions, the academic background of the evaluator has significant impact, irrespective of race or treatment, with orthodontists tending to make a significantly better analysis with regard to the most esthetic profiles of black patients.…”

“…In the study by Hockley et al, 4 evaluators preferred profiles +1.5 mm forward of Ricketts' line E in photographs of both sexes. In contrast, in silhouettes, the same evaluators preferred profiles +0.25 mm forward of line E for women and 20.1 mm behind line E for men.…”

“…In this study, photographs and silhouettes were used, and no divergences occurred between the two methods, proving their applicability. 4 CONCLUSIONS N The slightly concave profile was preferred by the study participants, irrespective of the evaluators' sex, race, and undergraduate course. N Generally speaking, the two methods-photos and silhouettes-show good agreement for the evaluation of attractiveness.…”

“…[6][7][8][9] Among the angles and lines considered patterns, the esthetic plane created by Ricketts (line E -soft pogonion -the nose tip) is widely used because of its easy application and because the large number of studies that have been conducted provide much data for comparison. 4 At the present time, however, greater attention has been paid to facial analysis that is detached from linear and angular measurements, which have been shown to be rigid and immutable. For esthetic analysis, some researchers defend the use of photographs, affirming that an esthetic and pleasing face is a set of diverse factors.…”

“…3 The position of the lip is an essential element when one intends to reposition the teeth in the anterior or posterior direction, and this factor is of the utmost importance in obtaining a balanced profile. 4 Various studies have reported that the structure of the soft tissue and bone/dental profile in black individuals is more protrusive in comparison with the pattern for white individuals. In view of this, it is common for black patients to seek orthodontic treatment to reduce labial protrusion by extracting the four first premolars.…”

BackgroundThe use of dermal fillers in minimally invasive facial aesthetic procedures has become increasingly popular of late, yet as the indications and the number of procedures performed increase, the number of complications is also likely to increase. Paying special attention to specific patient characteristics and to the technique used can do much to avoid these complications. Indeed, a well-trained physician can also minimize the impact of such problems when they do occur.MethodsA multidisciplinary group of experts in aesthetic treatments reviewed the main factors associated with the complications that arise when using dermal fillers. A search of English, French and Spanish language articles in PubMed was performed using the terms “complications” OR “soft filler complications” OR “injectable complications” AND “dermal fillers”. An initial document was drafted that reflected the complications identified and recommendations as to how they should be handled. This document was then reviewed and modified by the expert panel, until a final text was agreed upon and validated.ResultsThe panel addressed consensus recommendations about the preparation, the procedure and the post-procedural care. The panel considered it crucial to obtain an accurate medical history to prevent potential complications. An additional clinical assessment, including standardized photography, is also crucial to evaluate the outcomes and prevent potential complications. Furthermore, the state of the operating theatre, the patient’s health status and the preparation of the skin are critical to prevent superficial soft tissue infections. Finally, selecting the appropriate technique, based on the physician’s experience, as well as the characteristics of the patient and filler, helps to ensure successful outcomes and limits the complications.ConclusionsThis consensus document provides key elements to help clinicians who are starting to use dermal fillers to employ standard procedures and to understand how best to prevent potential complications of the treatment.Level of Evidence VThis journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.
