What position(s) will the orthodontist evaluate for facial symmetry?

  1. Frontal and profile view

  2. Lateral and medial view

  3. Oblique and axial view

  4. Posterior and anterior view

The correct answer is: Frontal and profile view

The orthodontist evaluates for facial symmetry by examining the frontal and profile view of the patient's face. The other options, such as lateral and medial view, oblique and axial view, and posterior and anterior view, are not typically used to assess facial symmetry. The frontal and profile view provide the most comprehensive and accurate evaluation of facial symmetry, as they show both the front and side profile of the face. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
