Abstract The aim of this study was to find correlations between lateral cephalometric measurements and photographic measurements of facial attractiveness in a group of Egyptian adolescents. Sixty adolescent laypersons judges (30 males - 30 females) participated in the evaluation of the pre-treatment photographs of 60 adolescent subjects (30 females - 30 males) for facial attractiveness. For each sample, the photographic rankings were correlated with the values of 19 skeletal, dental and soft tissue parameters measured from lateral cephalograms. Female samples group: from the 19 cephalometric measurements; ANB, wits appraisal, MMA, lower incisor / mandibular plane angle, profile angle, E- line to lower lip, lower lip thickness and upper lip length were the variables showed significant correlation with photo attractiveness. Male samples group: ANB, facial angle, upper incisor / palatine plane angle, Z- angle, Upper lip thickness and upper lip length were the variables showed significant correlation with photo attractiveness |
