“…The nasofrontal angle (G-N-Prn) showed significant sex differences in the adult Garo and the angle was wider in females. This is in agreement to the findings by Reddy et al (2011) in the North Indian population (136.71˚ ± 3.64˚ in males and 144.33˚ ± 1.75˚ in females), Fernandez-Riveiro et al (2003) for Spanish (138.57˚ ± 6.81˚ in males and 141.98˚ ± 6.06˚ in females), Anic-Milosevic et al (2008) for Croatian (136.38˚ ± 6.71˚ in males and 139.11˚ ± 6.35˚ in females) and Wamalwa et al (2011) for Kenyans (132.44˚ ± 6.91˚ in males and 137.97˚ ± 5.21˚ in females). However, Malkoc et al (2009) found no sex differences in this angle (146.03˚ ± 8.19˚ in males and 148.61˚ ± 6.66˚ in females).…”

“…The mean value of nasofacial angle (G-Pg/N-Prn) found in the adult Garo population (40.27˚ ± 4.54˚ in males and 38.67˚ ± 4.05˚ in females) is more in comparison to the values given by Reddy et al (2011) (34.38˚ ± 1.77˚ in males and 33.69˚ ± 1.37˚ in females) but larger than Anicy-Milosivecy et al (2008) (29.53˚ ± 2.51˚ in males and 30.36˚ ± 2.38˚ in females). No significant sexual dimorphism was observed.…”

“…As face is the entity which gives us the perception of individuality of human being and of gender differences, different craniofacial parameters help in identifying people having different physical characteristics, diagnosing people having craniofacial abnormality related to congenital or genetic cause and differentiating between males and females. Various methods have been used to evaluate facial characteristics such as craniofacial anthropometry (Kolar & Salter, 1997), photogrammetry (Fernandez-Riveiro et al, 2003;Kale-Varlik, 2003;Anicy-Milosivecy et al, 2008;Malkoc et al, 2009;Anibor & Okumagba, 2010;Reddy et al, 2011;Wamalwa et al, 2011), cephalometric radiography (Mc-Intyre & Mossey, 2003), stereophotogrammetry (Sforza & Ferrario, 2006), computed tomography and laser scanning (AlKhatib, 2010).…”

The analysis of facial soft tissue from the photographic records gives information about the standard normative values of different facial parameters of a specific population group, helps in the diagnosis of any abnormalities of face and also helps for the treatment plan of patients undergoing orthodontic treatment or facial plastic surgery. The aim of the present study was to measure some craniofacial angles of the Bangladeshi Garo males and females on standardized facial profile photographs and compare them with each other and with norms of different ethnic group proposed by the other investigators. The study was carried out with a total number of 100 Christian Garo adult male and female subjects. Statistical analysis showed that the females had significantly higher values than the males in three facial angles (p < 0.05): the nasofrontal angle (G-N-Pro, females = 137.97˚ ± 4.80˚; males = 129.57˚ ± 7.96˚), the nasomental angle (N-Prn-Pg, females = 132.79˚ ± 5.10˚; males = 129.75˚ ± 7.32˚) and the angle of facial convexity (G-Sn-Pg, females = 169.26˚ ± 4.43˚; males = 158.65˚ ± 12.17˚) but no differences between the nasofacial (G-Pg/ N-Prn) and nasolabial angle (Cm-Sn-Ls). Findings from the present study might help to establish a distinct facial profile trait for the Garo population.

“…Ioi et al [23] stated that Japanese facial profile was highly convex for both males and females as both genders have a tendency of retruded lip position. Reddy et al [24] after calculating the total angular facial profile (G-Prn-Pg), it was found that the population of northern India has a nose more aquiline causing the facial profile to be more straight compared to the Europeans, and by calculating the angle G-Sn-Pg, the facial profile of the female population of north India were more convex than men. Anibor and Okumagba [25] stated that the higher values shown by the Urhobo females in their Nasomental and Mentocervical values and the lesser values in the Nasofrontal and Nasofacial angles compared to males imply that the females have a more protruded nose, less prominent glabella and bigger chin on their faces compared to males.…”

Abstract-One of the main objectives of orthodontic treatment is to improve dental and facial esthetics. The understanding of soft tissues of the face in relation to the dentoskeletal tissues is essential in esthetic orthodontic treatment. Study of soft tissue facial profile by photogrammetry provides better information on the facial morphology. This is a descriptive study with a cross sectional approach using level stratified-cluster sampling method. The subjects of this study are 200 high school students in Medan. Lateral photographs of each subject were taken and their facial profile was measured. Results: The facial profile of high school students in Medan are convex 92.5%, straight 5.0%, and concave 2.5%. There were no significant differences in the facial profile of high school students in Medan based on gender. The facial profile of high school students in Medan is generally convex.

Pearson's correlation analysis was used to measure the linear dependence between thumbprint ridge density and Nasolabial distances. Stepwise linear multiple regression analysis was used to predict nasolabial distances from thumbprint ridge density. SPSS statistical software version 20 was used for the statistical analysis and a p-value of < 0.05 was set as a level of significance. Results showed that in males left proximal ridge count correlates negatively with nasal length, philtrum length, upper lip length and mouth width. The upper lip length and nasal width correlate negatively with left ulnar ridge count and right radial ridge counts, respectively. A positive correlation was observed between ulnar ridge count with nasal length and lower vermilion width. In females, a positive correlation was observed only between lower vermilion width and left proximal ridge counts. Left proximal ridge counts predict most of the nasolabial distances in
