Soft tissue cephalometric analysis: diagnosis and treatment planning of dentofacial deformity.
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article will present a new soft tissue cephalometric analysis tool. This analysis may be used by the orthodontist and surgeon as an aid in diagnosis and treatment planning. The analysis is a radiographic instrument that was developed directly from the philosophy expressed in Arnett and Bergman "Facial keys to orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning, Parts I and II" (Am J Orthop Dentofacial Orthod 1993; 103:299-312 and 395-411). The novelty of this approach, as with the "Facial Keys" articles, is an emphasis on soft tissue facial measurement.

Angular Photogrammetric Analysis of the Soft Tissue Facial Profile and Sexual Dimorphism in Young Adults in Zanjan
Background and Aim: Facial features are different depending on gender and race. These features are usually studied in profile view. Angular evaluation of the facial soft tissue profile is important in males and females of different races for correct diagnosis and treatment planning. For this reason, in the present study, we measured the facial profile angles in young adults in Zanjan. Material...
متن کاملStandards of soft tissue Arnett analysis for surgical planning in Turkish adults.
The aims of this study were (1) to establish standards for Arnett soft tissue cephalometric analysis of Anatolian Turkish young adults and (2) to identify possible gender differences between males and females. After analysing the cephalometric radiographs of 350 individuals, 133 subjects (67 males, mean age 22.6 +/- 2.2 years, and 66 females, mean age 22.1 +/- 2.6 years) with normal antero-post...
متن کاملImage analysis and superimposition of 3-dimensional cone-beam computed tomography models.
Three-dimensional (3D) imaging techniques can provide valuable information to clinicians and researchers. But as we move from traditional 2-dimensional (2D) cephalometric analysis to new 3D techniques, it is often necessary to compare 2D with 3D data. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides simulation tools that can help bridge the gap between image types. CBCT acquisitions can be made to...
متن کاملUpper incisor to Soft Tissue Plane (UI-STP): a new reference for diagnosis and planning in dentofacial deformities.
Planning in orthognathic surgery has been and still is an open issue. We have evolved from 2D classical cephalometric hard-tissue planning to 2D soft tissue planning, and finally to 3D and hard and soft tissue evaluation. This, to our knowledge, is the first description of a new Soft Tissue Plane (STP) and its relationship with the anterior position of the upper incisor (UI). Profile photograph...
متن کاملCephalometric soft tissue profile in unilateral cleft lip and palate patients.
Soft tissue profile analysis from cephalometric radiographs is recognized as an important part of the assessment of treatment outcome in cleft lip and palate (CLP), and has previously been found to discriminate between groups better than conventional hard tissue cephalometric analysis. Cephalometric radiographs of 182 12-14-year-old children from the UK with complete unilateral cleft lip and pa...
