Synopsis

 

Facial esthetics are most often judged by clinicians by measuring the position and form of the parts of the face and teeth.

Whether its cephalometric analysis or Smile Design, these diagnostic and treatment approaches only focus on form and position.

A mostly ignored aspect of facial esthetics is function. While the lips and teeth, if measured, might be found in a “proper” position, if they do not fit the patient’s overall system they will never look esthetic.

This is what is meant by functional esthetics.

The lips are the most important functional unit when it comes to facial esthetics.
Lip function, form and position are all influenced by the teeth and their fit, the temporomandibular joints, the airway and the skeleton.
If this system is not working correctly, it will be seen in the lips. If the lips are not working correctly, the system can break down.

The discussion will center on how to identify oro-facial problems that affect the lips.
It will show how treating these problems can deliver beautiful facial results by normalizing the patients lip position, form AND function.
