Vermilion, Lower Lip, Everted

Definition:

Subjective: Inner aspect of the lower lip vermilion (normally apposing the teeth) visible in a frontal view

Comments:

In frontal view, with the face relaxed, the apparent height of the lower lip vermilion is excessive and the lower incisors may be visible. On profile view, the vermilion is more convex than usual. An everted lower lip may be viewed as "pouting," but this designation is a functional term.

Replaces:

• Drooping Lower Lip
