“…The other applications such as Heges 3D scanner, Bellus 3D Face Application, 3D Scan Anything, Trnio 3D Scanner, and 3D Scanner Pro had given inferior results when applied on human male and female models. 12,13 In our current study, we observed a mean difference of 0.35-1.57 mm when compared with direct anthropometry. In study, the accuracy using an iPhone as a threedimensional scanner has been published by Rudy et al 14 The iPhone was found to be accurate and precise to within 0.5 mm when compared with a commonly used, validated, and expensive three-dimensional Canfield Vectra H1 camera.…”

Background: Cleft lip, a major craniofacial abnormality, is highly prevalent among people with low socioeconomic status in Indonesia. Direct two-dimensional measurement of the affected region is the gold standard for surgical preparation; however, its compliance and usability are limited in pediatric patients. Modern smartphones, including iPhones, are equipped with high-resolution cameras, which can record images and videos of a face. Here, we investigated whether a three-dimensional (3D) smartphone scanner can be used for the facial measurements of patients with unilateral cleft lip. Methods: Twelve facial measurements were acquired after cleft lip surgery in three female and seven male patients (aged 11–29 months) with unilateral cleft lip using direct anthropometry and a 3D smartphone scanner. The accuracy and precision of the 3D smartphone scanner were assessed through comparative analyses ( t test and Bland–Altman plot). Results: The anthropometric data obtained using the 3D smartphone scanner matched the direct measurement data. The linear measurements did not differ significantly between two-dimensional and 3D modalities ( P > 0.05). The intraobserver reliabilities of the two-dimensional smartphone scanner of the first and second observers were high (intraclass correlation coefficient 0.876–0.993 and Cronbach alpha 0.920–0.998) and moderate to high (intraclass correlation coefficient 0.839–0.996 and Cronbach alpha 0.940–0.996), respectively. Inter-observer data showed an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.876–0.981 and a Cronbach α of 0.960–0.997. Conclusion: The 3D smartphone scanner is effective, efficient, economical, quick, and feasible for facial measurements of patients with unilateral cleft lip and is a viable alternative to direct two-dimensional measurements.

“…Facial scanners can generate a 3D topography of a patient’s facial surface anatomy, which, when paired with a digital study model and a CBCT scan, creates a 3D “virtual patient” for improved diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient outcomes [ 13 , 14 , 15 ].…”

The current paradigm shift in orthodontic treatment planning is based on facially driven diagnostics. This requires an affordable, convenient, and non-invasive solution for face scanning. Therefore, utilization of smartphones’ TrueDepth sensors is very tempting. TrueDepth refers to front-facing cameras with a dot projector in Apple devices that provide real-time depth data in addition to visual information. There are several applications that tout themselves as accurate solutions for 3D scanning of the face in dentistry. Their clinical accuracy has been uncertain. This study focuses on evaluating the accuracy of the Bellus3D Dental Pro app, which uses Apple’s TrueDepth sensor. The app reconstructs a virtual, high-resolution version of the face, which is available for download as a 3D object. In this paper, sixty TrueDepth scans of the face were compared to sixty corresponding facial surfaces segmented from CBCT. Difference maps were created for each pair and evaluated in specific facial regions. The results confirmed statistically significant differences in some facial regions with amplitudes greater than 3 mm, suggesting that current technology has limited applicability for clinical use. The clinical utilization of facial scanning for orthodontic evaluation, which does not require accuracy in the lip region below 3 mm, can be considered.
