Comparison of Two Computer-Animated Imaging Programs for Quantifying Facial Profile Preference

To establish the physical basis of subjective judgments of facial appearance, two novel computer-imaging programs differing in method of preparation and presentation of 5 features of the facial soft-tissue profile of 4 faces representing 4 different classifications of dental occlusion were compared. Images of facial soft tissue of 5 features were digitized and “animated” from 16 discrete distortions or morphed from the two extremes of each feature. 12 volunteer judges responded to both the “animated” and morphed presentations by pressing the computer mouse button when the image became acceptable and releasing the button when the image was no longer acceptable. They also pressed the mouse button when the most pleasing distortion appeared from either direction. Aggregating responses to counterbalanced trials and features across judges yielded high correlations between the programs for midpoint of acceptability. Although both programs provide reliable and valid measures of subjective acceptability of present and proposed changes in facial morphology, the new morphing program is more user-friendly than the “animated” method.
