Facial asymmetry was assessed quantitatively by measuring the average distance between facial image and mirrored image. Further, the percentage of asymmetry was calculated as the percentage of image to mirrored image not coinciding within 0.5\u2003mm. Qualitative assessment was performed on colour deviation maps by recording the predominant side of the face for the upper, middle and lower parts of the face separately. Nonparametric tests were used for data analysis.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results\u2002\u2013\u2002<\/jats:bold> No face was perfectly symmetric. The average distance between the mirrored images for the whole face ranged 0.22\u20130.85\u2003mm and the percentage of asymmetry 7.8\u201366.9. There were no significant gender differences (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2003&gt;\u20030.05), and no significant change was found over the observed period. The upper part of the face was the least asymmetric, while the lower and middle parts showed similar degrees of asymmetry.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion\u2002\u2013\u2002<\/jats:bold> Facial
