Novel Digital Workflow for Nasoalveolar Molding and Postoperative Nasal Stent for Infants With Cleft Lip and Palate. CB Carter, FF Gallardo, HE Colburn, DW Schlieder.
We present a novel digital workflow to provide presurgical infant orthopedic (PSIO) treatment for a patient with a unilateral cleft lip/palate utilizing nasoalveolar molding (NAM) and a custom postsurgical nasal stent.
Development of Personalized Non-Invasive Ventilation Interfaces for Neonatal and Pediatric Application Using Additive Manufacturing. M Bockstedte, AB Xepapadeas, S Spintzyk, CF Poets, B Koos, M Aretxabaleta.
Patient individualized oronasal and nasal masks were produced. An automated design workflow and use of additive manufacturing enabled a fast and feasible procedure.
Genetic variants underlying differences in facial morphology in East Asian and European populations. M Zhang, S Wu, S Du, et al.
Evolutionary analyses suggest that the difference in nose shape between EUR and EAS populations is caused by a directional selection, due mainly to a local adaptation in Europeans. Our results illustrate the underlying genetic basis for facial differences across populations.
3D Facial Analysis in Class II Subdivision Malocclusion. E Candida, FR Grippaudo, C Romeo, R Tauro, A Blasi, C Grippaudo.
The aim of this work is to evaluate the facial asymmetry in a group of patients with Class II subdivision, compared to patients in Class I without evident asymmetry, by using 3D photographs of the face.
An investigation of a novel broad autism phenotype: increased facial masculinity among parents of children on the autism spectrum. DW Tan, SZ Gilani, GA Alvares, A Mian, AJO Whitehouse, MT Maybery.
..the broad autism phenotype observed among first-degree relatives of autistic people is expressed not only in behaviour and cognition but also in facial characteristics.
Sex Differences in Adult Facial Three-Dimensional Morphology: Application to Gender-Affirming Facial Surgery. JJ Bannister, H Juszczak, JD Aponte, DC Katz, PD Knott, SM Weinberg, B Hallgrímsson, ND Forkert, R Seth.
The objective is to quantify the effect of sex on adult facial size and shape through an analysis of three-dimensional (3D) facial surface images.
Landmark movement trajectory: A simple reference to understand the dominant muscle contraction in a dynamic smile expression. W Sun, M Xu, T Song.
Sixty volunteers (aged 18-45 years) were included, and standardized frontal view images were obtained by three-dimensional photogrammetry. Each image sequence frame was referenced and superimposed onto the neutral image.
Is the degree of facial swelling after dental extraction sufficient to justify the current delays to radiotherapy mask production? A pilot evaluation of post-extraction swelling using 3D photography. McCormick et al.
Facial swelling following dental extraction may not be sufficient in itself to justify the current delays in mask production and subsequent delivery of radiotherapy. Further definitive studies are needed to optimize how dental extractions should be timed within head and neck cancer care pathways.
Three-dimensional stereophotogrammetric analysis of facial soft tissues following bone-borne rapid maxillary expansion. G Gokce.
The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate soft tissue facial changes following bone-borne rapid maxillary expander using 3D stereophotogrammetry.
