People have been studying facial aesthetics since ages. Orthodontics as a specialist branch was defined in the end of the 19th century when Angle defined three types of malocclusion. Nowadays orthodontic therapy is needed when dealing with unsatisfactory facial aesthetics. The aim of therapy is not only to achieve ideal occlusion but also to make soft facial tissue look harmonious. It is of great importance to analyze soft facial tissue separate from dentoskeletal analysis when planning therapy. Frontal facial analysis and profile analysis are both done. Frontal plane facial analysis consists of a vertical component and a horizontal component. When analyzing face profile linear and angular measurements such as S- line, H- line, E- line, B-line, and nasolabial and mentolabial angles are used. The term malocclusion refers to a situation when teeth or two dental arches are not positioned properly. The causes of malocclusion are of specific nature; they are hereditary and occur due to the influence of the environment. Various orthodontic anomalies occur when these factors interact. These anomalies have a specific look. Third class anomalies are real progenia and pseudoprogenia. Patients with real progenia have a concave profile and the lower third of the face is elongated. The chin is prominent and the lower lip is thickened and in front of the upper one. Patients with pseudoprogenia have a concave profile. Their maxilla is not well developed and the mandible is normal. Second class anomalies are divided into types II/1 and II/2. Patients with type II/1 anomaly have a convex facial profile, a prominent upper lip and a recessed chin whereas patients with type II/2 have a convex facial profile, contracted lower and enlarged middle part of the face as well as a prominent nose and a beard. An open bite is a vertical plane anomaly characterized by an elongated lower third of the face and lip incompetence.
