Morphologic changes in the perioral soft tissues in patients with mandibular hyperplasia using a laser system for three-dimensional surface measurement

Abstract: Soft tissue changes following correction of mandibular hyperplasia were studied using a laser system for three-dimensional (3-D) surface measurement. Twelve subjects (7 men and 5 women; age 17-48 years) were included in this study. Bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomies were performed in ten patients and intraoral vertical ramus osteotomies in two patients. Pre- and postoperative images, obtained with the laser system, were superimposed to determine distribution of changes in the perioral soft tissue. Mean… Show more

“…33 The results of facial changes have been reported in different ways. Landmarks' displacements, 34 interlandmark distances and angles, 17 color-millimetric maps 25 and volumetric changes 23,35 have been described. The variety of methods used indicates the wealth of information the 3D images have, as well as reflecting the need to standardize the methods of assessment so consistent evidence is obtained from different research groups.…”
