The eyes are considered the “gateway to the soul” and may reflect why there is an innate tendency when you meet someone that you stare into their eyes. After this fraction of a second interpretation, the eyes assess the face in a relatively stereotypical fashion. The observer rapidly scans the nose followed by the lips and mouth.

Within 1 second you can determine from the facial and mouth characteristics whether a person is beautiful, will be friendly and potentially their health and social standing. How would you rate your smile? The appearance of your anterior teeth, their colour, shape and form, together with the relationship with the gums will determine the beauty of your smile. The beautiful ideal at rest is that a female shows 3-4 mm of the upper central incisors and men now no upper incisor. On smiling 100% of the teeth should be visible with women showing 2-3 mm of gum above the tooth. Variants of this can detract form an individual’s oral beauty and overall facial beauty.
