Facial Aesthetics: Concepts and Clinical Diagnosis

Facial Aesthetics: Concepts and Clinical Diagnosis is a unique new resource to facial aesthetic surgery and dentistry, providing a comprehensive clinical manual on the art and science of facial aesthetics for clinicians involved in the management of facial deformities, including orthodontists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, plastic and reconstructive surgeons and aesthetic dentists. It aims to provide readers with a comprehensive examination of facial aesthetics in the context of dentofacial and craniofacial diagnosis and treatment planning.
Structured over 24 logically arranged and easy–to–follow chapters, Part I of Facial Aesthetics covers the historical evidence for facial aesthetic canons and concepts in depth. It incorporates all aspects relevant to the work of the clinician, including the appreciation and awareness of facial beauty from a range of perspectives, facial attractiveness research, facial expression and psychosocial issues. Part II of the book then goes on to examine clinical evaluation and diagnosis in considerable detail under 4 sections, from the initial consultation interview and acquisition of diagnostic records (section 1), complete clinical examination and analysis of the craniofacial complex (section 2), in depth analysis of each individual facial region using a top–down approach (section 3) and finally focussing on smile and dentogingival aesthetic evaluation (section 4).
An in–depth, thoughtful, practical and absorbing reference, Facial Aesthetics will find an enthusiastic reception among facial aesthetic surgeons and aesthetic dentists with an interest in refining their understanding and appreciation of the human face and applying practical protocols to their clinical diagnosis and treatment planning.
