Abstract:
The "Golden Ratio," golden proportion, or mathematical golden section/division speaks to the relationship between two ratios: the larger part to the smaller is in the same proportion as the whole to the larger part. The length and width of someone's face are first measured, and the result is divided. First, it is necessary to measure the width and length of the face to gather data on symmetry, from chin to hairline, and measure the width at the widest part of the face (likely the cheekbones). Now, divide the length by the width. The ideal result is 1.618, meaning that a beautiful person's face is about 1 ½ times longer than it is wide. Measurements are further made in segments: from the forehead (hairline) to the point on the nose between the eyes, from that point to the edge of the nose, and from the edge of the nose to the end of the chin. A person is considered more beautiful if the numbers are equal. Attention is then focused on the symmetry and proportion of the face, and according to this golden ratio, to be declared beautiful, the length of the ear must be equal to the length of the nose, and the length of the eye should be equal to the distance between the eyes. In dentistry, the concept of the golden section represents significant aid in achieving aesthetic and functional perfection. Through the application of mathematical principles and harmonious proportions, the golden section is used as a guideline for shaping a smile that is harmonious and aesthetically appealing. Although individual variations may influence the final result, the principle of the golden section remains a key element in achieving optimal aesthetics and proportions in dental practice. This concept enables the attainment of a high level of patient satisfaction through precise planning and execution of aesthetic dental treatments.
