This pilot study aimed to evaluate, for the first time, the changes in facial tissues following the placement of a single dental implant.
The aim of this study was to clarify the hard-soft tissue relationships of the lower 1/3 of the face in skeletal Class II-hyperdivergent patients compared with those in Class I-normodivergent patients using network analysis.
The aim of this study was to describe a reproducible method to calculate facial volume change and to assess its reliability.
The sample consisted of 20 randomly selected 3D photos at rest (ten 8-12-year-old children and ten 20-40-year-old adults, with equal gender distribution), from a preexisting orthodontic patient sample.
The 3dMDface system was used to capture the nasolabial morphology of the individuals.
We conducted this study to identify phenotypes of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children based on lifestyle, sleep habits, age, obesity, sex, soft tissue facial features, and specific craniofacial abnormalities.
When the nasal tip protrusion decreased, the subjects all had the visual illusion of upper lip protrusion; and when the nasal tip protrusion was too large, the general population had the most obvious visual illusion of upper lip protrusion.
This study explored the association between occlusal and facial asymmetries in adolescents, particularly emphasizing a Class II subdivision.
These results could be attributed to the fact that the placement of the prosthesis in mouth helps directing lip position with big linear measurements.
Reasonable orthodontic design corrects bone incoordination and improves profile.
