The famous Terminator actress is renown for her square jaw. Still, when you look carefully, the jaw isn’t particularly square from the profile. A B minus at most. From the front the jaw angles are jutting because of well developed masseter muscle.

Note how the mandible has grown in accommodation to the maxilla. Her lip shape is affected by her maxillary deficiency. Note the inferiority of the top lip to the bottom. Nose is also affected, and hence not upturned. The airway is marginally constricted. (Could she breathe completely silently?) Perhaps this… Read more »
