| IntroductionFacial asymmetry is a commonly observed phenomenon in human anatomy, with individuals displaying subtle variations between the left and right sides of their face. This study aimed to evaluate facial asymmetry in relation to hand preference and gender.Material and MethodsAnthropometric facial measurements were conducted on 147 female and 150 male volunteers aged 19–42 years. Standard facial photographs taken from the front in the Frankfort horizontal plane were used to digitally perform 16 linear measurements (8 on the right side and 8 on the left side). All measurements were performed using the AutoCAD program. An asymmetry index was calculated using the (R−L)(R+L)×100. The significance of differences between means was tested to evaluate the index values according to sex and hand preference.ResultsBased on the comparison of asymmetry index values between 221 right … |
