This study aimed to investigate the impact of head circumference on the accuracy of three-dimensional (3D) facial scans, focusing on trueness and precision.
We collected thermal and 3dMD facial images of 2,811 Han Chinese individuals 20–90 years old, developed the ThermoFace method to automatically process and analyze images, and then generated thermal age and disease prediction models.
The combination of the 3dMD and CBCT technologies improves the accuracy and fitness of extra- and intra-oral soft tissue reconstruction.
We present a method of computer-assisted orbital floor reconstruction using a mirroring technique and a custom-made titanium or high-density polyethylene mesh printed using computer-aided manufacturing techniques.
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 novel technique for ISFCP fabrication described in this paper can help optimise the clinical efficiency and quality of ISFCP but requires an initial learning curve.
