Digitalizing all aspects of dental care is a contemporary approach to ensuring the best possible clinical outcomes. Ongoing advancements in 3D face acquisition have been driven by continuous research on craniofacial structures and treatment effects. An array surface-imaging systems are currently available for generating photorealistic facial images. However, choosing purpose-specific system challenging clinicians due variations accuracy, reliability, resolution, portability. Therefore, this...
Abstract Objective The present study aimed to determine the site and severity of maxillomandibular asymmetry before after orthognathic surgery in asymmetric patients. Materials methods Presurgery postsurgery cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) data 21 facial patients (7 males 14 females, mean age: 23.0 ± 3.36 years) with soft tissue chin deviation ≥ 3 mm who had undergone bimaxillary were evaluated. Seven midline twenty bilateral hard landmarks identified for evaluation outcomes assessed...
Abstract The present study aimed to evaluate the morphological characteristics of sphenoid sinus (SS), and impact potential influencing factors on morphometric features using CBCT imaging. scans 148 patients, aged between 15 85 (32.88 ± 15.33) years were retrospectively evaluated. DICOM files from imported into semi-automatic software SS each patient was assessed for including configuration, symmetry, extension, shape, septation, volume, maximum diameter. Furthermore, such as age, gender,...
To compare the accuracy of smartphone-generated three-dimensional (3D) facial images to that direct anthropometry (DA) and 3dMD with aim assessing validity reliability 3D for routine clinical applications.
Abstract Background This study aimed to investigate dental student’s perception of facial attractiveness with regard different combinations anteroposterior malar-jaw positions using 3-dimensional (3-D) reconstructed images subjects. Methods Two Chinese young adults (1 male and 1 female) straight profiles average malar projections were selected for the study. 3-D cone-beam computed tomography these two subjects superimposed imaging software. Lateral oblique views nine created by moving...
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the outcomes of corrective surgical treatment for craniofacial asymmetry using four different methods with aim developing best technique assessment. Materials and CBCT images twenty-one class III subjects surgically corrected matched controls were analyzed. Twenty-seven hard tissue landmarks used to quantify using following methodologies: index (AI), scores based on clinically derived midline (CM), Procrustes analysis (PA), modified (MPA). Results Modified...
