  • line of lip closure to labiomental sulcus
  • labiomental sulcus to base of chin
19
Q

Middle third of the face

A
  • Superior margin of the ear aligns with the eyebrow (think of how glasses sit on your face)
  • Inferior margin of the ear aligns with the base of the nose
20
Q

Fifths of the face

A

The width of the face is five eyes wide between the zygomatic arches.
- equal to the width between inner corners of each eye

21
Q

Supplemental equalities

A

Features of the face that are equal/similar in measurement
- Lateral edge of eye closure to external auditory meatus is equal to 1/3 of the face length
- Distance of the center of the eyes equals the width of the mouth
- Distance between the medial corners of the eyes is equal to the width of the nasal wings
- distance of two arches equals eyebrow to base of the chain equals tip of the nose to the ear canal

22
Q

Diamond Face Shape

A
  • The cheekbones are the widest point and the face features a more angled and pointed chin.
  • The forehead will also angle upwards at the sides
23
Q

Heart Face Shape

A

a wide, rounded forehead, but an angular, pointed chin

24
Q

Inverted Triangle Face Shape

A

Angular for head, angular jaw, pointed chin (more pointed than heart shaped)

25
Q

Rectangle Face Shape

A
  • The forehead, cheeks, and Joel, with or equal width, and the length is longer than it is wide.
  • The sides of the face or flatter as compared to the facial shapes with rounded features, and the jar is angular or squarer
26
Q

Round Face Shape

A
  • The vertical distance and the width between the cheek bones are equal
  • The chin and cheeks are rounded
  • The cheeks are the widest point of the face
  • Also called infantine face
27
Q

Oblong Face Shape

A

Forhead cheeks and jaw are the same width
the sides of the face and jaw are more rounded

28
Q

Oval Face Shape

A
  • Similar to a round face, but it is longer than it is wide
  • Most common facial shape
29
Q

Square Face Shape

A
  • Vertical and horizontal measurements are equal, but instead of having rounded cheeks and jawline, the face has flat sides and a more angle jaw
  • They also have a straight hairline
  • The strong facial shape
30
Q

Triangle Face Shape

A
  • The forehead is pointed, and the sides widen, the jaw is the widest point
  • May have close set eyes
  • Least common head shape
31
Q

Concave Profile

A

Forhead is prominent or protruding, as well as a prominent chin
- Features create an inward curvature or concavity
- Least common facial profile

32
Q

Vertical or Plane Profile

A

Forehead, chin and, lips all project to an imaginary line
- Very little curvature to their profile

33
Q

Convex-Concave Profile

A

Fore head recedes backwards or posteriorly, and the chin is prominent or protruding

39
Q

Convex Profile

A

Forehead, receding, or sloping posteriorly from there brown line
Chin recedes backwards or posteriorly
- May have a more prominent brow
