There is a certain "look" that has become the ideal of attractiveness in our society. This appearance may be due to masseteric hypertrophy, which can have an extraordinary effect on facial form. A case is presented and discussed. The practitioner should be alert to investigate further when treating patients with this look. Thorough medical and dental histories are essential in establishing this diagnosis.
