Methodology: The study included 248 digital lateral cephalic skull radiographs of adults between 18 and 45 years of age. To obtain the pleasing silhouettes, these silhouettes were presented to a group of 10 university students for 30 seconds. They had no knowledge of dentistry and were asked to identify the most harmonious profiles using a Likert-type scale. The pleasing silhouettes had to score higher than 30, and all the radiographs were then traced with linear and angular measurements from the authors Steiner, Holdaway, and Arnett. Results: Twenty-three harmonic and fifty-six non-harmonic profiles were selected. In harmonic individuals, the thickness of the base of the upper lip showed a relationship with the distance 1-NA (p=0.008) and the tension of the upper lip with the angle 1-NB (p=0.033). Conclusion: In individuals with harmonic profiles, when the distance 1-NA increases, the thickness of the base of the upper lip increases, and when the angle 1-NB decreases, the tension of the upper lip increases.
