“…The studies take into consideration age, sex, skeletal class, and ethnic group. Maxillofacial surgeons influence facial profile by bimaxillary surgery, improving facial aesthetics and harmony [16], as well as nasal projection and nasolabial angle (NLA) [17]. Nasal growth since early childhood as well as nasal shape and profile has been subjected to various analyses by numerous authors [1-3, 7, 9, 14, 18-22].…”

The nose is the most prominent structure of the face, influencing facial appearance and profile. Orthodontists have an awareness of facial structures, including nasal morphology, when diagnosing and treatment planning. Maxillofacial surgeons influence facial profile by bimaxillary surgery, improving facial aesthetics and harmony. The aim of this review was to summarize the available methods of analysing nasal morphology and profile, and to assess their complexity. A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase using the following search terms: “nasal profile analysis”, “nasolabial angle”, and “nasal profile cephalometric” in order to select studies providing knowledge on correlations between occlusion and nasal development, differences between skeletal classes, ethnic variability, and differences between the sexes. Studies concerning genetic disorders were excluded. Finally, 17 full-text papers were analysed, which pertained to nasolabial angle, or facial profile including the nose. Data concerning methods, ethnic group, reference landmarks used, and measurements made were extracted and placed in tables. Numerous methods of nasal profile analysis can be found in the literature. These methods describe various numbers of parameters, which have influence on facial aesthetic. Nasal parameters are correlated to skeletal class and nasolabial angle, positions of upper incisors, and maxillary inclination.

The universal notion of beauty does not exists, however, the facial symmetry contributes to a better aesthetic effect. This harmony is primarily determined by the relationship between parts of the face and dental parameters. Tooth loss leads to a decrease in the height of the bite and consecutive oncoming of the tip of the nose and chin and a violation of the vertical and horizontal relationship between the maxilla and mandible. The aim of the study was to determine the interrelationship of facial parts in subjects with a full dentition. The study included 60 dental students of both sexes in whom the presence of a complete dentition was determined by clinical examination. Facial parameters of the subjects' profiles were measured, as well as the ratio of bipupillary distance and intercommissural distance. The obtained results partially confirmed the theory of matching the heights of the profile thirds and halves of the face. The values of the distance between the two pupils and the lip commissure did not differ statistically significantly. The obtained results could be used in the reconstruction of intermaxillary relationships after the loss of some or all teeth.
