摘要

人類鼻部是側臉輪廓上的重要特徵，齒顎矯正治療也常需考量鼻部側面形態。然而以往各文獻對此的探討流於零散，關乎國人的資料更少之又少。本研究以側面測顱分析法從大小、形狀與方位三者完整地分析國人12至15歲女性的鼻部側面形態，而獲得臨床參考數據、生長變化、及不同種族間的差異等結果。在生長變化方面，12至15歲間的側鼻角度測量變項均無顯著差異；而鼻部大小則部分有增加的傾向。與國外比較，中外的鼻部側面形態不一樣；相較於高加索人，國人女性呈現起伏和緩而鼻背形狀較平直或較塌陷的形態。

The nose is 1 of the most important characters in the human facial profile, and it is also a good reference for the evaluation of orthodontic treatment. However, there is little literature available regarding the Taiwanese nose morphology. Using cephalometric analysis on a total of 120 Taiwanese females, aged 12 to 15 years, the present study obtained cross-sectional growth data and clinical references concerning the size and shape of the nose. The results showed that the shape of nose did not significantly change among different ages, but the size significantly increased, mostly between the ages of 12 and 15 years. The nose morphologies between Taiwanese and Caucasian females are different, and Taiwanese young females show a flatter or somewhat more-concave nose dorsum.
