Cephalometric features associated with the mentolabial angle and lower lip eversion in young adults: A cross-sectional study
The inclination of the lower incisors and the overjet primarily influences the mento-labial angle. Women tend to have a greater mento labial angle, meaning it is more retrusive, compared to men. Additionally, the likelihood of lip eversion is higher in males. For each degree of increased lower incisor inclination or overjet, the risk of developing lip eversion also rises. <b>Key words:</b>Cephalometry, Chin, Dental Esthetics, Lip.
