Non-planar faces folding the wrong way

[flexo92]

Hi! Does anyone know if there is a way to control the folding of a non planar face (without creating triangles)? I'm working on a character's head and I got some faces who are not folding the way I want. Here's a picture:

Here's an a more visible example on a cube (what I got is on the left, what I want is on the right (but I don't want the extra edge who creates two triangles):

Thanks!

Yes you can do this if you wish to write your own tesselation routine with maya api. But no not otherwise.

I never heard of tessallation routine before... Is it hard to use or should I try to make the problematic faces planar (it's not easy, when I fix one, it messes up another...)?
