Profiles of facial soft tissue changes during and after orthodontic treatment in female adults. J Gao, X Wang, Z Qin et al.

3dMD Customer Research, Dental, Orthodontics

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.
