Analysis of 3D soft tissue changes after 1- and 2-jaw orthognathic surgery in mandibular prognathism patients.
PURPOSE Orthognathic surgery has the objective of altering facial balance to achieve esthetic results in patients who have severe disharmony of the jaws. The purpose was to quantify the soft tissue changes after orthognathic surgery, as well as to assess the differences in 3D soft tissue changes in the middle and lower third of the face between the 1- and 2-jaw surgery groups, in mandibular pro...
متن کاملSimultaneous Glossectomy with Orthognathic Surgery for Mandibular Prognathism
Macroglossia can create dental and skeletal instability after orthodontic treatment or orthognathic surgery for mandibular prognathism. In relevant literature, partial glossectomy is suggested for a good post-treatment prognosis. Most of the published partial glossectomy cases are two-staged surgery, because of concern about postoperative airway obstruction. As orthognathic surgical techniques ...
متن کاملcomparison of an imaging software and manual prediction of soft tissue changes after orthognathic surgery.
accurate prediction of the surgical outcome is important in treating dentofacial deformities. visualized treatment objectives usually involve manual surgical simulation based on tracing of cephalometric radiographs. recent technical advancements have led to the use of computer assisted imaging systems in treatment planning for orthognathic surgical cases. the purpose of this study was to examin...
متن کاملStress change on the temporomandibular joint in mandibular prognathism subjects with asymmetry after orthognathic surgery.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in stress on the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in 80 Japanese subjects (21 males and 59 females, mean age 23.7 years) with mandibular prognathism, with and without asymmetry after orthognathic surgery using the rigid bodies spring model (RBSM). The asymmetric group consisted of 40 subjects whose Mx-Md midline was more than 3 degrees. The remaini...
متن کاملVisualizing three-dimensional facial soft tissue changes following orthognathic surgery.
Laser scanning can be used to visualize the face in three dimensions. These scans can then be processed to enable assessment of facial changes. The aim of this single-centre, prospective, longitudinal, cohort study was to investigate whether four different visualization methods correctly represented facial changes occurring as a result of orthognathic surgery. Twenty-six consecutive orthognathi...
