Question 110 · LDEK · Clinical examination

When the lip profile is correct the lip step according to Korkhaus should be:

  1. A. positive.
  2. B. increased, positive.
  3. C. straight.
  4. D. slightly negative.
  5. E. increased, negative.
Hint

In a balanced profile the lower lip sits slightly behind the upper lip; think how Korkhaus's sign convention describes this.
