The anatomy of a smile: its importance in the treatment of facial paralysis. Plast Reconstr Surg 1974;53:384-7] Smile reconstruction requires an understanding of the facial movements that occur during a normal smile. Facial reanimation should be tailored for each individual patient so that the movements on the reconstructed side are similar to that on the normal side.<\/p>\n<h3>Aim<\/h3>\n<p>The aim of this study is to produce a quantitative analysis of smiles, as a basis for smile reconstruction and to compare our subject&#8217;s smiles to the classification suggested by Rubin.<\/p>\n<h3>Method<\/h3>\n<p>The smiles of 71 volunteers were analysed using three-dimensional (3D) stereophotogrammetry in x, y and z vectors. Each subject had the distances and angles of 10 surface landmarks (cheilion left and right (L&amp;R), labiale superius\/inferius, mid-lateral upper\/lower lip (L&amp;R), nasolabial fold (L&amp;R)) moved from the relaxed position to that in a maximum smile. All subjects&#8217; smiles were classified into the Rubin subtypes of corner of the mouth, canine and full-denture smile.<\/p>\n<h3>Results<\/h3>\n<p>The average distances and angles moved by oral landmarks during a smile in a 3D plane were&#8211;cheilion: 16.6mm at 31 degrees ; labiale superius: 8.2mm at 31 degrees; upper mid- lateral lip: 10.5mm at 25 degrees; labiale inferius: 5.3mm at -56 degrees; lower mid-lateral lip: 7.8mm at 41 degrees and nasolabial fold: 12.6mm at 33 degrees . Our population results for the smile subtypes suggested by Rubin were&#8211;corner-of-the-mouth smile: 77%, canine smile: 15% and full-denture smile: 8%.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-94\" src=\"https:\/\/charlesnduka.co.uk\/plastic-surgery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/research07.jpg\" alt=\"research07\" width=\"540\" height=\"473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/charlesnduka.co.uk\/plastic-surgery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/research07.jpg 540w, https:\/\/charlesnduka.co.uk\/plastic-surgery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/research07-300x263.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Our study offers a simple quantitative method for measuring the smile to assess the outcome of reanimation surgery between different surgical procedures and units.
