Stomion
[Soft tissue anatomic landmark]
Most posterior point between lower lip and chin
Mentolabial sulcus
[Soft tissue anatomic landmark]
Most anterior midline soft tissue point of chin
Pogonion
[Soft tissue anatomic landmark]

Menton
Line that is drawn from the superior aspect of the external auditory canal to the inferior border of the infraorbital rim while the patient’s gaze is parallel to the floor.
Frankfurt line
