Abstract

The soft tissue covering the teeth and bone is highly variable in its thickness, and this variation may be greater than the variation found in the position and size of the teeth and bone. An esthetically pleasing face is regarded as one in which various facial features are well proportioned and balanced and relate well to other facial features.
