“…The mean facial depth was found to be 89mm, equivalent to that given by Sforza 8 in children with deciduous dentition. But an anthropometrical analysis in children 17 and a photogrammetry study among adults showed much higher values to that of what we obtained. Facial parameters like anterior upper facial height, upper facial width, mouth width, nasal depth and facial depth did not contribute much to attractiveness in healthy children.…”

“…It signifies nasal length and Indian nose should be considered as a different entity in comparison to those of Caucasian, Oriental, and African populations. 16 The average value was found to be approximately 49mm in the present study whereas in a 3D facial morphometric study, it ranged between 36.7-40.4mm8 and an anthropometric study 17 on Romanian children showed values ranging from 31-43 mm. Thus, the variation in the average values can be attributed to difference in the ethnicity, as an average Indian exhibits increased nasal length.…”

In the present era, esthetics has become an important dimension in dental practice as parents and children are equally self-conscious of their appearance. Children now desire to possess an aesthetically pleasing smile. Harmonizing an esthetic smile integrates facial and dental components. Since the scientific data on pediatric esthetics are limited, the aim of the study was to evaluate esthetic parameters of the face and components of smile in children with deciduous dentition.: After fulfilling inclusion criteria, 3 sets of facial photographs of 100 children were obtained, comprising of frontal at rest, frontal smile and profile at rest images under standardised photographic technique. Linear measurements of facial and dental parameters were assessed with the help of Adobe photoshop and static norms were obtained by taking the average value. Subjective evaluation was performed by a group of professionals using Q-sort technique to list the attractive features in children.Static norms were obtained for facial and dental parameters. Attractive children showed decreased facial height, anterior lower facial height, vermilion height and bigonial width. They also displayed decreased smile index and buccal corridor ratio along with parallel smile arc and more than 3/4th of crown height visibility during smiling. Attractive children presented facial and dental parameters variable from normative values. : The study results can be utilised during restorative and prosthetic rehabilitation among children to improve esthetics.

Objectives: To study the facial morphology in children with non-syndromic cleft lip and palate by applying numerical facial analysis on photographs for planning and evaluating treatment outcomes. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted from March 2020 to July 2020 in the Department of Oral Pathology, University of Health Sciences and Cleft Lip and Palate Hospital, Lahore Pakistan. A total of 104 patients of both genders with an age range from three months to thirteen years were included. Photographs of the participants were taken to measure facial anthropometrical landmarks including facial height, nose width, mouth width and inter canthal distance. The association between facial measurements with gender and phenotype and across age groups were computed keeping the confidence level at 95%. Results: Mean age of the children was 72.43±44.2 months with slight male predominance. Thirty-one percent presented with bilateral cleft lip and palate followed by unilateral cleft lip and plate. Total mean facial height, nose width and mouth width were found to be 143.46±21.52mm, 32.24±5.03mm and 33.71±4.38mm respectively. Intercanthal distance was measured to be 31.04±5.99mm. Statistically significant association was observed between gender and facial height, nose width, mouth width and Intercanthal distance. Conclusion: Facial anthropometric measures done on frontal photographs can be used to identify the facial landmarks in children with non-syndromic cleft lip and palate in low resource stings that may help surgeons in getting better aesthetic outcomes. These landmarks vary between ethnic groups therefore these should be specific to a particular race and ethnicity so as to ensure proper aesthetics and improved quality of life for the children of all nations. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.40.5.8485 How to cite this: Anjum R, Mahmood S, Nagi AH, Chaudhry S.

“…Stunting is a condition that indicates a lack of intake and a long incidence of infectious diseases [3]. Stunting is assessed with a z-score of Height for Age (TB/U) showing <-2 standard deviation (SD) [4]. At the age of 24-59 months, the physical manifestations of stunting will be more visible [5].…”

Background: Stunting is a problem caused by long-term malnutrition so that at the age of 24-59 months the physical manifestations are more visible. Completeness of immunization and nutritional status of pregnant women are aspects that are risk factors for stunting. The prevalence of stunting in 2020 in the world reached 22%, while in Indonesia it is 30.8%. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between the completeness of immunization and the nutritional status of pregnant women with the incidence of stunting in children under five aged 24-59 months. Method: The research method with this type of observational analytic research is a case-control approach. The sample size is 178, the sample is taken by purposive sampling, using secondary data obtained at the Wilangan Health Center. Results: Based on the chi-square test, it was found that there was a relationship between the completeness of immunization and the incidence of stunting with a value of p<0.001 (OR=12.63) and there was a relationship between the nutritional status of pregnant women and the incidence of stunting with a value of p<0.001 (OR=13.58). The results of the logistic regression test analysis showed a p-value <0.001 on the completeness of immunization and nutritional status of pregnant women for stunting with OR values of 5.71 and 5.52 respectively. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between the completeness of immunization and the nutritional status of pregnant women with the incidence of stunting.
