The perfect aesthetic appearance of the mouth is expressed first and foremost with the help of a beautiful, pearly smile, which in its essence is synonymous with beauty as a universal image and which requires balanced proportions, while at the same time constantly awakening a state of pleasant feelings. The aesthetic components of a smile imply an insight into the essence of harmony and beauty of the face in order to highlight the geometric shape of the face as well as the various ethnic variations. Aesthetic dentistry is based on psychological knowledge as it is defined as a set of procedures for creating harmony between the facial features of the face and the mouth.

Dermal fillers are a cornerstone of the aesthetic treatments of the face. They have evolved over many aspects since their initial use. Facial fillers are not just used for anti-aging to restore volume, but are now also used for contouring, enhancing facial features, and changing the emotional attributes of the face. Newer techniques and approaches have been proposed for greater predictability of results and minimum complications. Newer composite filler materials and a resurgence of older materials have taken place with better understanding of the science behind them. With more use of facial fillers comes the reporting of newer complications with recommendations and guidelines to avoid them. A new perspective is seen in guidelines for their use in the COVID-19 pandemic. This article is a review of the insight into the latest perspectives of facial fillers for aesthetic indications.

Aesthetics is one of the key elements that accompanies modern medicine, in particular, dentistry. The need for treatment not only eliminates the symptoms of the disease but also leads to the restoration or improvement of the aesthetic appearance of the person, and especially the face, gave impetus to the development of new areas of science and technology. An important step in the implementation of such treatments is experimental research to identify the norm for certain categories of the population, primarily according to sex and ethnic group. The aim of the study was to establish the characteristics of cephalometric parameters in Ukrainian young men and young women with orthognathic occlusion, which usually do not change during surgical and orthodontic treatment, depending on sex and facial types. On the basis of the clinic "Vinintermed" teleroentgenography was performed using a dental cone-beam tomograph Veraviewepocs 3D Morita (Japan). Cephalometric examination of lateral teleroentgenograms in 46 young men (aged 17 to 21 years) and 72 young women (aged 16 to 20 years) with orthognathic occlusion was done. The type of face was determined according to the morphological index of Garson. The evaluation of parameters that usually do not change during surgical and orthodontic treatment was performed in the licensed package "Statistica 6.0" using non-parametric methods of evaluation of the results. The percentile ranges of cephalometric parameters, which usually do not change during surgical and orthodontic treatment depending on the facial types of Ukrainian young men and young women with orthognathic occlusion has been established. Pronounced manifestations of sexual dimorphism of cephalometric parameters, which usually do not change during surgical and orthodontic treatment (higher values in young men) are established only for most linear dimensions (values of distances NS, Ar-Go, N-Se, N-CC, P-PTV and S-Ar) in representatives of different types of faces. Both between young men and young women with different face types, there are almost no reliable or tendencies of differences in cephalometric parameters, which usually do not change during surgical and orthodontic treatment.

This article probes the explanatory value of the concept of celebrity capital in helping us to grasp the fate of celebrities and the cultural objects they produce when they move across to other fields. However, the article seeks to do more than this: with reference to the example of the singer-songwriter Bob Dylan’s incursion into the cinematic field, where he co-wrote Masked and Anonymous (2003), it contributes to debates by examining the significance of field-specific aesthetic criteria in helping us to gain insight into the aesthetic value of cultural objects. While Dylan’s celebrity capital gave him access to a number of ‘A-List’ celebrity actors, the aesthetic dimension of the film did not have a meaningful relation to the state of play in the cinematic field and so the film was, in the main, critically panned. So, Masked and Anonymous made Dylan’s boundary-crossing journey in reverse: it retreated to the field of popular music where its aesthetic properties were warmly received when considered in relation to Dylan’s wider body of work. Meanwhile, it was difficult for the harshest critics to ignore the aesthetic value that Dylan’s wider body of work had accumulated over time. There is, then, a temporal dimension of aesthetic appraisal that needs to be considered, even when reviews are considered at a particular historical conjuncture. In this analysis of field-specific aesthetic criteria, we see that boundary work is effective in diminishing the status of a cultural object ( Masked and Anonymous), but we also see that each critic has only limited sway in the face of the totality of judgements which emerges as a supra-individual voice, heterogeneous and full of contradictions, deriving from all those who make evaluative judgements in the field of culture.

The article discusses the problem of defects in the front layer of brickwork of multilayer walls. At many facilities constructed using the technology of laminated masonry with brick facing, after several years of operation, defects such as vertical cracks in the masonry face layer and destruction of the bricks of the face layer begin to appear. These defects violate the aesthetic appearance of the building, reduce the thermal characteristics of the external walls, and, in some cases, can lead to the collapse of certain sections of the brick cladding layer. This problem is considered on the example of a 10-storey residential building with external multilayer walls, located in Perm. The building was commissioned in 2005, but already in 2010, many defects of the front layer of masonry were discovered. The article provides data obtained during surveys carried out in 2010 and 2019. The main defects of the external masonry verst are described, among which one can distinguish the destruction of the masonry face layer, vertical cracks, the absence of stitching along the supporting corner of the masonry, and the absence of expansion joints. The main causes of damage are associated with numerous deviations from the project. The results of calculating the outer verst of brickwork for eccentric compression are presented. As measures aimed at eliminating defects, the article describes possible methods of repairing the face masonry: the installation of vertical and horizontal expansion joints, longitudinal reinforcement and anchoring with BIT rods to prevent the development of vertical cracks and destruction of the masonry.

Abstract. Facial appearance has long been understood to offer insight into a person’s health. To an experienced clinician, atypical facial features may signify the presence of an underlying rare or genetic disease. Clinicians use their knowledge of how disease affects facial appearance along with the patient’s physiological and behavioural traits, and their medical history, to determine a diagnosis. Specialist expertise and experience is needed to make a dysmorphological facial analysis. Key to this is accurately assessing how a face is significantly different in shape and/or growth compared to expected norms. Modern photogrammetric systems can acquire detailed 3D images of the face which can be used to conduct a facial analysis in software with greater precision than can be obtained in person. Measurements from 3D facial images are already used as an alternative to direct measurement using instruments such as tape measures, rulers, or callipers. However, the ability to take accurate measurements – whether virtual or not – presupposes the assessor’s facility to accurately place the endpoints of the measuring tool at the positions of standardised anatomical facial landmarks. In this paper, we formally introduce Cliniface – a free and open source application that uses a recently published highly precise method of detecting facial landmarks from 3D facial images by non-rigidly transforming an anthropometric mask (AM) to the target face. Inter-landmark measurements are then used to automatically identify facial traits that may be of clinical significance. Herein, we show how non-experts with minimal guidance can use Cliniface to extract facial anthropometrics from a 3D facial image at a level of accuracy comparable to an expert. We further show that Cliniface itself is able to extract the same measurements at a similar level of accuracy – completely automatically.

This paper offers a new disciplinary research agenda for a geography of the human face. Locating a research lacuna within the subfield of embodied geographies, the paper highlights existing interdisciplinary scholarship on the face, suggesting avenues through which geographers can both complement and advance such discussions. The overall proposal is to (re)consider the spatialities of the face via three routes: the political and biometric, the aesthetic and facial modification. The paper concludes by suggesting a disciplinary opportunity for a future facialised geography, providing valuable insight into this dynamic bodily site upon and through which the world is encountered and experienced.

Continuity And Discontinuity

This article aims to explore the Shaykh-mur?d (disciple) or teacher-pupil relationship as portrayed in Western Sufi life writing in recent decades, observing elements of continuity and discontinuity with classical Sufism. Additionally, it traces the influence on the texts of certain developments in religiosity in contemporary Western societies, especially New Age understandings of religious authority. Studying these works will provide an insight into the diversity of expressions of contemporary Sufism, while shedding light on a phenomenon which seems to fly in the face of contemporary social and religious trends which deemphasize external authority and promote the authority of the self or individual autonomy.
