test 1 Flashcards
morphology
study of form without regard to function
norm
standard expectancy
anomaly
deviation from the norm
physiognomy
study of a surface and its form
morphology with restorative art
- comparison of structure
- allows us t make assumptions
- canon of beauty = things that are deemed as beautiful
- classical proportions
- human expectations
- conveyance of emotions in the deceased
projection
feature that extends outward
recession
withdrawn from a position
inclination
a slope
convex
outline or surface curved like the exterior of a circle of sphere
concave
outline or surface that curves like the interior of a circle of sphere
checkpoints of the head
- parietal eminences
- cheeks
- upper lip
- chin
head shapes - oval
- most common
- classic egg shape form
- cranium is slightly wider than the jaws
head shapes - round/infantine
- very full
- convex form of the features is usually in harmony
head shapes - square/strong
- usually broad and has very little curvature
- forehead is wide and angels of the jaw are usually low and wide
head shapes - oblong
- long and narrow
- may be accompanied by hollow cheeks
- nose is generally long and prominent at the tip
head shapes - inverted triangle
- wide in the forehead and narrow in the jaws
- consists of large, rounded cranium
- high broad forehead, and jawline that narrow down to an oval
head shapes - diamond
- wide across the cheekbones
- narrows in width in forehead and jaws
- eyes are likely to be well separated
- nose short and thin
- mouth relatively narrow
head shapes - triangular
- least common
- wider between the panels of the jaw than it is across the forehead
- mouth tends to be the widest
- nose is fleshy and broad
- tendency toward heavy jowls
basic linear facial profiles
- denotes the relationship of the forehead, upper lip, and chin
- nose is not included in description
- forehead is described by its direction from the eyebrow upward
- the chin is described by its relationship to the upper lip
convex profile
- most common
- the forehead recedes from the eyebrows to the hairline
- the chin recedes from the projection of the upper lip
concave profile
- protrusion of the forehead from the eyebrows to the hairline
- chin protruding further than the upper lip
vertical profile
- forehead, upper lip, and chin project to an imaginary vertical line
convex-concave profile
- forehead recedes
- chin protrudes
concave-convex profile
- forehead protrudes
- chin recedes
vertical convex profile
- vertical forehead
- chin recedes
vertical concave
- vertical forehead
- chin protrudes
convex vertical profile
- forehead recedes
- chin and lip on vertical line
concave vertical profile
- forehead protrudes
- chin and lip on vertical line
bilateral differences of the head
- curvature of face form side to side
- noted by peering upward at face from chin
- or from peering downward from above head
different bilateral curvatures
- oval
- round
- angular
- square
measurements of the face- in halves
- top of the head to the line of eye closure
- base of chin to line of eye closure
measurement of the face - in thirds
- hairline/parietal eminences to the eyebrows
- eyebrows to base of the nose
- base of the nose to base of the chin
measurements of the face - lower 1/3 of the face
- base of the nose to line of lip closure
- line of lip closure to top of the chin
- top of the chin to the bottom of the chin
supplemental equalities (so they should all be the same)
- hairline to base of nose
- eyebrows to base of chin
- ear passage to tip of the nose
- they should all be roughly equal
horizontal measurements of the face
- keep in mind curvature
- 1 eye = width of nose
- 2 eyes = width of mouth
- 5 eyes = width of face of zygomatic arches
vertical measurements of the face
- base of ear is equal to bottom of nose
- nose makes up middle 1/3 of face
- ear matches angle of jawline
- ear is equal to 1/3 of face
