Facial soft tissue analysis is becoming increasingly emphasized in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. While traditional cephalometry primarily focuses on hard tissues, recent non-invasive imaging techniques offer the potential to comprehensively evaluate three-dimensional (3D) facial tissues. The aim of study was establish geometrical 3D cephalometric divergence between Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) derived images scanned Crucial for enhancing diagnosis, minimizing patient...
Cephalometric analysis is traditionally performed on skull lateral teleradiographs for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. However, the flattened over a 2D film presents projection distortions superimpositions to various extents depending landmarks relative position. When CBCT scan indicated mixed reasons, cephalometric assessments can be directly scans with distortion free procedure. The aim of present study compare these two methods cephalometry.114 CBCTs were selected,...
The objective of this paper is to define normal values a novel 3D cephalometric analysis and the links through an artificial neural network (ANN).One hundred fifteen CBCTs Class I young patients, distributed among gender-adjusted developmental groups, were selected. Three operators identified 18 landmarks from which 36 measurements obtained. repeatability was assessed ICC. Two-dimensional extracted by automatic function, mean value standard deviation compared paired Student's t-tests....
Background: This article analyzes differences in microbiological parameters and periodontal health conditions among three patient groups: those undergoing conventional orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances, patients clear aligners, a control group receiving no treatment. Materials Methods: In this study, 60 were enrolled. The analysis employed qualitative semi-quantitative methodology of bacterial morphotype analysis. Results: analyses revealed significant difference favor oral...
The ANB angle, the cephalometric parameter of choice for assessing anteroposterior relationship between maxilla and mandible, is subject to several limitations, prompting investigation alternative parameters. Objective: This study aimed investigate ABwise measurement as an angle evaluating maxillomandibular relationships in orthodontics, particularly addressing impact skeletal discrepancies on conventional methods. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed a CBCT dataset patients...
Virtual simulation has advanced in dental healthcare, but the impact of different tomographic techniques on virtual patient (VP) creation remains unclear. This study primarily aimed to automatically create VP from facial scans (FS), intraoral (IOS), multislice (MSCT), and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT); Secondarily, quantitatively compare artificial intelligence (AI)-driven, AI-refined semi registered (SAR) MSCT CBCT effect soft tissue registration with CBCT. A dataset 20 FS, IOS,...
Abstract Purpose The present study aimed to compare and correlate the ANB angle with bisector Wits appraisal for a three-dimensional (3D) assessment of maxillomandibular sagittal relationship using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) dataset. Methods After outlier removal, 351 CBCT scans were chosen based on inclusion criteria (high quality, full-cranium field view [FOV], slice thickness 150–300 μm) analyzed 3DSlicer software (Brigham Women’s Hospital, Boston, MA, USA, version 5.2.2). Eight...
Purpose The present study aimed to three-dimensionally evaluate the correlation between cephalometric measurements utilizing Sellion in place of Nasion.
