The golden proportion is a well-known phenomenon and is considered a proportion often cited as frequently occurring in nature. It has been demonstrated by various artists, mathematicians, scientists and even philosophers. The golden proportion revolves around living beings and inactive creatures; even synthetic components and designs seem to follow the golden proportion. Human beings are genetically developed so that they can easily recognize the proportion as pleasurable because it demonstrates delicacy and is associated with the number science. The optimal proportion is associated directly with the golden proportion. The golden proportion is recognized as a standard rule for facial delicacy, and its application may aid in simplifying the diagnosis related to different dentofacial disorders. Various techniques were utilized to quantify the size and kind of teeth, such as the golden proportion.
