Date: February 2013. Source: Dentomaxillofacial Radiology, Volume 42, Issue 2. Objectives: In recent years, one of the foci of orthodontics has been on systems for the evaluation of treatment results and the tracking of tissue variations over time. This can be accomplished through analysing three-dimensional (3D) orthodontic images obtained before and after the treatments. Since…
