Profiles of facial soft tissue changes during and after orthodontic treatment in female adults. J Gao, X Wang, Z Qin et al.
This study used 3dMD stereo photography technology to compare facial soft tissue changes among adult females who received orthodontics. A total of 52 adult females (24 teeth extraction, 28 non-teeth extraction cases) were included and potential correlations between related factors (facial morphology features, the change of occlusal height and dental arch width) were evaluated during different treatment periods.
Smile Reproducibility and Its Relationship to Self-Perceived Smile Attractiveness. D Dobreva, N Gkantidis, D Halazonetis, C Verna, G Kanavakis.
Our results show that lip morphology during smiling is highly consistent among young adults. Females presented higher consistency in the shape of the smile, including lip morphology, compared to males. Self-perceived smile attractiveness was not associated to smile consistency.
Does Preventive Single Dose of Intravenous Dexketoprofen Reduce Pain and Swelling After Orthognathic Surgery? A Prospective, Randomized, Double Blind Clinical Trial. YN Kaba, AE Demirbaş, N Kütük, DG Canpolat, A Alkan.
Preventive administration of intravenous dexketoprofen provides adequate analgesic effect in the postoperative 24-hour period and reduces opioid consumption in orthognathic surgery.

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.
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.
3D assessment of facial contours of patients wearing either complete denture or implant-supported fixed dentures. ZB Demirekin, A Gunaydin, K Cavdarli, Y Findik, S Turkaslan, T Baykul.
Complete denture and implant-supported fixed partial denture cause facial soft tissue changes, which may help to improve the facial esthetic.
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.
