Zusammenfassung

Das Gesicht ist die wichtigste Informationsquelle des menschlichen Körpers. Es stellt den Fokus der Aufmerksamkeit in der zwischenmenschlichen Interaktion dar und ist somit die bedeutendste soziale Informationsquelle. Die visuelle Wahrnehmung des Gesichts kann jedoch durch lokalisierte Asymmetrien in sensiblen perzeptiven Bereichen wie der Mundregion gestört sein. Abweichungen vom bilateral-symmetrischen Aufbau des Gesichts wie z. B. durch eine asymmetrische Lippenform, dentale Fehlstellungen und gingivale Differenzen können erhebliche Auswirkungen auf die gesamte dentofaziale Ästhetik haben. Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden einzelne Aspekte der Diagnose und Therapie vor dem Hintergrund der interdisziplinären ästhetischen Behandlungsplanung erörtert.
