Primary outcomePrimary: Inter-rater Reliability Using a Masseter Muscle Prominence Scale (MMPS) — 0.728; 0.711 Kendall's W
Summary
This study will evaluate the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of a Masseter Muscle Prominence Scale for evaluating a patient's muscle prominence and a Lower Shape Classification for evaluating a patient's lower facial shape.
