Abstract: | A new anthropometric landmark of the face, called the maxillozygion (mz; right, left) is presented. The bilateral landmark is the most prominent point of the maxillozygomatic suture line, identified by palpation of the most anterior protruding contours on the frontal aspect of the face, located below the lateral third of the right and left bony orbits. The reliability of locating the landmark on both sides of the face by palpation is discussed. Preliminary data determining the position of the maxillozygion in the vertical, sagittal, and horizontal planes in white and Asian sample populations is presented. In general, the Asian face tends to be the same width (zygion zy]-zy) as the white face; however, the maxillozygion is located more laterally on the Asian face compared with the white face. |
