“…Only 9.33% of total subjects (6.66% of male and 12% of female), had perfectly coinciding facial midlines with maxillary midline. In contrast 47.9% of Pakistani population 14 ,72.5% of Karnataka population 11 and 85% of Caucasian 15 had facial and maxillary dental midline coinciding. All of those studies considered only one parameter as facial midline which was similar to F2 facial midline of this present study.…”

Introduction: The facial midline is defined by the landmark such as the nose, philtrum, and chin aligned in a straight line. It should be in the center of the face and should coincide with the dental midline. But clinically it is often observed that some discrepancies exist between facial and dental midlines. Thus the aim of this study was to evaluate the facial and dental midline discrepancies. Methods: A total of 300 subjects, 150 male and 150 female from People’s Dental College and Hospital were selected. Full facial view standardized photograph with a posed smile with teeth in occlusion was taken with Canon 400D digital SLR. For standardized measurement vertical metallic scale with millimeter, markings were placed on the right side of the patient in all cases. The software program Digimizer image analysis (version 4.6.1) was used to determine the facial and maxillary dental midline. Result: This study showed 6.66% of male and 12% of female had perfectly coinciding F1 facial midline (perpendicular from the midpoint of inner canthus distance), F2 facial midline (line joining the midpoint of inner canthus and the midpoint of the base of the nose) and maxillary midline. 26% of males and 28% of females had less than 1mm of the discrepancy of F1 midline to maxillary midline whereas 41% of males and 38% of females had less than 1 mm of a discrepancy between F2 facial midline and maxillary midline. The study also showed that 24% of males and 24.66% of females had none coincidence of any of the midlines with one another. Conclusion: Most of the Nepalese have noncoinciding facial and dental midline but females have more coinciding midlines in comparison to males. The shifted facial midlines are more towards the left side in relation to maxillary dental midline.

“…But a small axial midline angulation (10°) is already easily noticeable. Furthermore, Khan et al [15] studied the dento-facial midline in Pakistani subjects and they found that the upper midline was coinciding with lower midline only in 2/3 rd of the subjects and facial midline was coinciding with the dental midlines in <50% of the subjects. But they found that dental midline deviations were more on the left side which was contrast to our study.…”

Background: The facial midline and dental midline play an important role in facial esthetics, cosmetic dentistry, facial plastic surgery, and anthropologic studies. Objectives: This study studied the dento-facial midline in Nepalese subjects and to classify the midline. Methods: The study was done in 150 Nepalese subjects, mostly consisting of University students (70 males and 80 females). After obtaining ethical approval, facial and dental midlines were analyzed using a scale. Results: It showed 24 (16%) study subjects showed the coincidence of the facial midline with the maxillary and mandibular dental midlines. It showed that only 26 (16 %) subjects showed the coincidence of facial midline with only maxillary dental midline and 17 (11 %) subjects showed the facial midline coincidence with only mandibular dental midline. The dental midline discrepancy was more prevalent in the maxillary arch and more prevalent on the right side. Midline discrepancy is seen more in males compared to females. The majority of the deviation showed 1 mm, followed by 2 mm, and 3 mm. Conclusions: The coincidence of the facial midline with both the maxillary and mandibular dental midlines is uncommon. Midline discrepancy is seen more in males compared to females. The majority of the subjects show a mild discrepancy of 1 mm. The midline discrepancy was more seen on the right side and in the maxillary arch.
