or facial trauma, neck pain, shoul­der pain and back pain.
• Onset of symptoms—Symptoms can develop either suddenly or insidious.
• Severity of symptomology— Symptoms may be mild, moderate, or severe.
2. Examination of face: The evaluation of the patient should be done in the presence of good light. Careful examination face of patient dur­ing talking, chewing and swallowing reveals many factors. The examiner should look care­fully for signs of trauma, previous facial sur­gery, eye swelling (“bags under the eye”). Eye swelling might indicate uid or allergic disor­ders. The quality of the skin can be quickly noted. It includes the general examination, aesthetic examination, functional examina­tion of face, examination of Tm joint, exami­nation of muscles of mastication and orofacial-myofunctional examination.
(a) General examination of the face
• General inspection of the face – Inspection of the face should be
done for sagging of eyelid, exces­sive wrinkling and redundancy of skin in various areas like chin, neck, upper neck and face.
– The face should be inspected to
document any skin lesions such as keratoses, moles, or scars.
– Inspection is done for any facial
asymmetry, nasal deformities, prominent ears, malocclusion (overbite, crossbite, or underbite) or excessive hair. These ndings should be documented.
– The face should be inspected for
any enlargement of the sides, which is due to masseter hypertrophy.
– Any abnormal facial movements,
such as tics, should be documented if present.
– The patient should be prompted to
do basic movements of the face, such as smiling, pursing the lips and closing the eyes tightly. Any
asymmetry or loss of movement of the face is noted.
• Body built—It can be normal, large, or small.
• Type of face (normal variations of face)
– Oval face—It is the most propor-
tional face out of all the shapes.
– Square face—The face is square in
appearance with both sides straight; jaw line is more angled and slightly rounded chin.
– Round face—With softer, more
rounded angles, it resembles square-shaped faces quite a bit. Instead of being straight, the sides of the face bend slightly outward. The cheekbones are a little wider than the rest of your face, and the chin is rounded.
– Rectangle/oblong face—The facial
structure of rectangular faces is nar­rower and somewhat longer. The jawline, cheekbones and forehead are all around the same breadth, and the chin has a very tiny curvature.
– Diamond face—The characteristics
of diamond-shaped faces are a more pointed and narrower chin and much higher, broader cheek­bones. Additionally, the person’s hairline would be thinner, which is the primary distinction from a heart-shaped face.
– Heart-shaped face —The heart-
shaped faces are remarkably simi­lar to diamond faces with one major exception being that the hairline (forehead) is signicantly wider. The chin is thinner and more pointed, while the cheekbones remain the face’s biggest feature.
Facial features in various diseases
– Hypothyroid face—Facial expres-
sions become dull, eyelids drop and the eyes and face become puffy.

15 History and Examination of Structural and Functional Deformities of the Face…
– Thyrotoxic face—Facial expres-
sion of excitement tension, ner­vousness, or agitation with or without exophthalmos.
– Acromegalic face—A noticeable
protrusion of the brow, frequently accompanied by ocular distension (frontal bossing) prognathism, or pronounced lower jaw protrusion, is accompanied by tooth spacing and macroglossia or tongue expansion.
– Cushing face—The face appears
round (moon-shaped face) due to fatty deposits, especially in the midsection.
– Thalassaemic face—People with
thalassemia major have enlargement of the cheekbones and forehead.
– Down face—A person with Down
syndrome has a attened face (especially the bridge of the nose) and almond-shaped eyes slanting upward with a short neck.
– Sclerodermic face—There is severe
tightening of facial skin that can cause a smaller and narrower mouth with reduced mouth opening.
– Sturge-Weber face—It has a red or
pink birthmark on one side of the face which is at and smooth, called a port-wine stain.
– Ageing face—Ageing face appears
as abby or dropping, which is due to loss of muscle tone and thinning of the skin. There may be a double chin in some people.
Facial skin signs may appear due to
local or systemic disease
– Buttery rashes—SLE – Skin lesion due to basal cell
carcinoma
• General palpation of face—The face of patients should be palpated for ten­derness, protrusion and lymph node enlargement.
(b) Aesthetic examination of face—It
includes the frontal view analysis and lat­eral view (facial prole) analysis.
Frontal view analysis—The frontal analysis is done on various parameters like shape of the head (cephalic index), facial foam (facial index), facial pro­portion, facial symmetry, forehead examination, nose examination and lip examination.
Parts of examination in frontal view analysis of the face
Shape of head Facial form Facial proportion Dentofacial symmetry Forehead examination Nasal examination Aesthetic lip examination Chin examination in frontal view
Shape of the head (cephalic
index)
Dolichocephalic (long skull)— This is dened as a long head as compared to breadth with a cephalic index less than 75. In this condition, the patient has a long and narrow dental arch. Mesocephalic—It is dened as medium-sized head with a cephalic index between 75 and
80. In this condition, the patient has a paraboloid or average den­tal arch. Brachycephalic (short skull)—It is dened as short-sized head with a cephalic index of 80–85. In this condition, the patient has a broad dental arch. Hyperbrachycephalic—It is dened as a round and broad head with a cephalic index of more than 85. In this condition, the patient has a broad dental arch.
Facial form
Facial height—Facial height measures from trichion to men-

ton.This is mainly used to assess the greatest facial height. Morphologic facial height—It is the distance between nasion to gnathion. Bizygomatic width (zygoma to zygoma (bizygomatic points))—It is the distance between two zygomatic points. Normally, it is around the 70% of facial height. Bitemporal width—It is mea­sured from two lateral points on each side of the head. It is around 80–85% of the bizygomatic width. Morphologic facial index (mor­phologic facial height/bizygomatic width)—It is a ratio between facial height and facial width. Facial index (height and width (vertical and horizontal) ratio)— The relationship between verti­cal face height and width is a pertinent measure of global facial shape. Notably, the physi­ognomic facial height (trichion­mento) and the bizygomatic facial breadth (Zy-R-Zy-L) in a balanced face are roughly 70–75% of each other. Males have a proportionate facial height-to-width ratio of 1.35:1, whereas girls have a ratio of
1.3:1. Interpupilary distance—It is measured from one pupil to another. Bi-gonion distance—It is the distance between two gonions. Laveling the points:
Laveling ear—two sides compared Laveling orbit—two sides compared Laveling zygomatic arch—two sides
compared
Table 15.3 Types of faces
Hypereuryprosopic—It is a very broad face with a low facial skeleton and facial index of <79.9
Euryprosopic—It is a broad face with a low facial skeleton and facial index of 80–84.9
Mesoprosop—It is a round face with an average facial skeleton and facial index of 85–89.9
Leptoprosopic—It is a long face with a high facial skeleton and facial index of 90–94.9
Hyperleptoprosopic—it is a very long face with a high facial skeleton and facial indexof more than 95
Types of faces (Table15.3)
Facial proportion
Horizontal proportion (horizon­tal third) of face—Da Vinci divided the face into equal hori­zontal thirds (Fig.15.1).
Upper third—It is the area above the nose
and between the eyebrows measured from the trichion (midpoint of the hair­line) to the glabella.
Middle third—It is measured from the
glabella to the subnasale (where the nasal septum meets the upper lip).
Lower third—It is measured from the sub-
nasale to the menton (the most inferior point of the chin). It is also divided into upper one- third from the subnasale to the stomion and lower two-thirds from the stomion to the menton.
Vertical proportions (vertical fth) of face—The neoclassical canon divides the face into equal fths in the vertical plane (Powell and Humphreys) (Fig.15.2).
Lateral fth—It extends from the lateral
canthus of the eye to the helix or ear on either side.
Middle fth—This is represented by two
eye ssures.
Medial fth—This is the distance between
the medial canthi of eyes or corresponds to the width of the nose.

Facial/dentofacial symmetry: It
describes a complete alignment of each face feature’s size, position, form and arrangement along the mid-sagittal plane. The human body nearly seldom exhibits full bilateral symmetry; instead, most people have some degree of asym­metries between their right and left

faces. A face that has crooked teeth, eyes at various heights, ears of varying sizes, or one eye larger than the other is said to be asym­metrical. It might range from minor to serious. When a bone deviation of at least 4mm is pres­ent, face asymmetry manifests clinically. Subclinical asymme­tries have values less than 4mm. There are four categories for asym­metry: dental, skeletal, muscular and functional.
Procedure/methods to assess facial asymmetry—The face should be examined in horizon­tal and vertical planes to determine any assymetry and its degree. Asymmetry of face refers to the difference between the same components. The asymmetry is facilitated by marking the midlines on the patient’s face and also by ana­lysing a clinical photograph.
Vertical facial plane and lines (Table15.4) Transverse/horizontal facial plane or lines (Table15.5)
15.1 Facial Aesthetic, Structural and Functional Deformities
Table 15.5 Horizontal planes/lines of the face
Submental view (worm’s view) and supe­rior view (bird’s eye view) are very useful to assess the deformity of midline struc­tures like nasal bridge, nasal tip, philtrum and chin.
Types of facial asymmetry— Facial asymmetry may arise from anomalies in the hard or soft tissues of the face, which can be acquired, developmental, or congenital in nature. Asymmetry resulting from trauma or ablative surgery tends to be non- progressive, whereas other forms of asymmetry may progress over time (Table 15.6 and Fig.15.4). Major aetiological factors/ causes for facial asymmetry (Table15.7)
Table 15.4 Vertical plane and lines of face
Mid-sagittal plane or facial midline—A vertical plane that extends from the vertex through the nasion or glabella, to mention anteriorly, and to occiput posteriorly, represents the facial midline. The facial midline is represented by a vertical plane passing from the vertex through the nasion or glabella, to mention anteriorly and to occiput posteriorly. It separates the face into two same halves. The mid-facial line connects the glabella, subnasale, menton, occiput and sella and runs perpendicular to the pupillary plane and ear plane (Fig.15.3b)
Mid-pupillary line—This is represented by a line running vertically down the face through the midpoint of the pupil when looking directly forward. This passes from supraorbital foramen, mid-pupil, infraorbital foramen, oral commissure and mental foramen (Fig.15.3b)
Anterior facial plane—This is represented by a line drawn vertically downward from nasion, subnasale, to gnathion
421
Frankfurt horizontal plane—It connects the highest point of external auditory canal to the lowest point of the infra orbital margin (Fig.15.3c)
Frankfurt-mandibular plane angle—The Frankfort­mandibular plane angle (FMA) is formed by the intersection of the Frankfort horizontal plane and the mandibular plane on lateral view posterior to occiput. This angle can be traced and measured by means of a diagnostic overlay. An FMA of 25 +/ 5° is within the normal range (Fig.15.3e)
Frankfurt line—It is an imaginary line that passes from the median line of the occipital bone and upper rim of the external auditory canal (auricular point) to the lower rim of the orbit (the infraorbital point) (Fig.15.3e)
Occlusal plane—The plane formed by the line passing through the overlapping cusps of the premolars and molars. The morphology and inclination (shape and slope) of the occlusal plane is assessed by asking him to hold the spatula between teeth. For obtaining harmonious orofacial relations, the inclination of the occlusal plane is an important parameter (Fig.15.3d)
Palatal plane—It is a plane from the posterior nasal spine to the anterior nasal spine (Fig.15.3c, e)
Mandibular plane—It is formed by joining the gonion to menton. It represents the inferior border of the mandible in the sagittal plane (Fig.15.3e)
Bi condylar plane—It is a plane that connects two condyles
Nasal oor plane—This plane passes through the nasal oor
Upper horizontal plane or true horizontal line (Bi-pupillary line)—It is a line passing through the
pupil. This plane can also be used for assessing bilateral vertical discrepancies by measuring height differences from the plane to the mandibular angles, chin, nose and commissures (Fig.15.3d, e)
Lower horizontal plane (through the stomion)—It is passing through the stomion
Interpupillary distance—It is the distance between two pupil which is 50% of bizygomatic width (Fig.15.3b)
Intercanthal width—It measures between two medial canthus of the eyes (Fig.15.3b)

Type of forehead—It can be at forehead, protruding forehead and steep forehead.
– Nose (middle third) examination
(discussed in more detail in Chap. 4).
Leptorrhine nose— Overprojected, narrow and more nasal height. Mesorrhine nose—This is more common in Asian people, who frontally lack dorsal height, but dorsal and alar wideness is more. Platyrrhine nose—This is com­mon in black, frontally broad alar base and nostril.
Aesthetic lip examination—On
frontal analysis of the face, the lip should be examined on various parameters.
Types of lip—The correct oral posture at rest includes gently sealed lips, a tongue resting on the palate, 2–3 mm of freeway space between the molars and nasal breathing. However, an interlabial gap of 1–5mm is con­sidered normal (Table15.11). Inter labial Gap—It is mea- sured from the upper lip inferior to the lower lip superior in a
Table 15.11 Types of lips
Competent lips—Lips contact each other without strain when the mandible is in a resting position known as competent lips (Fig.15.5g)
Potentially incopmetent lips or pseudoincompetent lip—They are not able to come in to contact with each
other due to the interposition of the upper incision in between (FIg. 15.5i)
Incompetent lips—Lips are not able to remain in contact with each other without strain when the mandible is in a resting position known as incompetent lips. The causes of incompetent lips are bimaxillary dentoalveolar protrusion (buck teeth), allergic rhinitis, adenoid and retrognathia (Fig.15.5h)
Everted lips—When the inner aspect of lip vermilion (normally opposing the teeth) is seen on the frontal view known as everted lips (Fig.15.5j)
Table 15.12 Interlabial gap in lep relaxed and smiling position
Normal: Lip relaxed position—It is measured when the lips
are in a relaxed position. A gap of 1–5mm in males and larger in females is within the normal range
Smiling position (Fig.15.5c)—It is measured in full smile between the lower border of the upper lip and the upper border of the lower lip
Abnormal: Increased interlabial gap—It is seen with vme, open
bite and short lip length Decreased interlabial gap—It is seen with vmd, deep
bite cases and increased lip length
relaxed lip position (Table15.12). Upper Lip length—It is mea­sured from the subnasale to the most inferior portion of the upper lip in the midline. The average upper lip length is 23mm in males and 20 mm in females (Fig.15.5l). Lower lip length—It is mea­sured between the stomion and gnathion. The average length in boys is 50 mm and in girls
46.5mm (Fig.15.5k) Width of lip—The width of lips is generally equal to the distance between the medial limbs and it should be about 40% of the width of the lower face. Lip thickness—Clinically, the lip is classied into thick lip and thin lip.
Upper lip thickness—The mean upper lip
thickness is 15.22 ± 2.39 mm in men and 12.58± 2.30mm in women (mean age 22.61years) (Fig.15.5b).
Lower lip thickness—It is measured at the
vermilion border to the inner lining of the lip. The mean value of lower lip thickness is 13.33mm (SD=0.94mm) for females (Fig.15.5a).

Lip ratio—The perfect lip ratio is dened as the height of the lower lip is 1.6 times the height of the upper lip. Lip line—It is dened as the vertical position of the lower border of the upper lip at rest. Smile line:
Normal—The 75–100% of anterior teeth
and interproximal gingiva of the maxilla is seen during a smile.
High—The entire cervico- incisional length
of maxillary teeth and an adjoining band of gingiva are seen during a smile.
Low—Less than 75% of the anterior max-
illa and no gingiva seen during a smile.
a
Lip tonicity—The tonicity is to be evaluated by pinching the lip.
Normal lip—Minimal tonicity Hypertonic lip—They appear redder, and
on palpation, they are rm and offer resistance.
Hypotonic lip—Hypotonic lips appear
accid, with little or no active
Movement; on palpation, they give a sensa-
tion of a wet cotton.
