Controlling the Vertical Dimension

Volume 51 : Number 7 : Page 375 : Jul 2017

The vertical dimension of the face, or facial height, is one of the more esoteric concepts in dentistry.

Anterior facial height is rather self-evidently described as "the sum of upper and lower facial heights, the lower limit of the latter variously defined as the pogonion, gnathion, or menton. Posterior facial height is often measured from the gonion to the condylare, sella, or center of face point." The occlusal correlate of facial height is the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO).
