Introdução: Identificar qual projeção do mento é ideal para compor um rosto harmônico, de acordo com a opinião de leigos e cirurgiões buco-maxilo-faciais (BMF), relacionando as variáveis: sexo, etnia(raça) e região de origem(local). Metodologia: Participaram do estudo 386 leigos e 198 cirurgi...

Comparison of maxillomandibular asymmetries in adult patients presenting different sagittal jaw relationships

ABSTRACT Objective: The present study aims at using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to analyze the maxillomandibular characteristics present in adults with mandibular asymmetries and different sagittal jaw relationships. Methods: 360 patients were selected and divided into three groups (Class I, C...

Ángulo de convexidad facial y proyección del mentón en pacientes en postoperatorio de rinoseptoplastia

Introducción: La relación de la nariz con la morfología facial no es solo estructural. Numerosos estudios sugieren la relación entre la función respiratoria nasal y el de-sarrollo craneofacial. Objetivo: Determinar la mejoría en el ángulo de convexidad facial y proyección del mentón en pacientes...

Facial asymmetry: virtual planning to optimize treatment predictability and aesthetic results

Abstract Facial asymmetry is a condition that compromises function and social interactions and, consequently, the quality of life. Orthodontic-surgical treatment may be indicated to achieve a stable occlusion and significant improvement in facial aesthetics. The virtual planning of the maxillary, mandibu...

Morphological characteristics of soft tissue profile of Angle's class II division i malocclusion before and after orthodontic treatment

Int. j. morphol; 36 (1), 2018
SUMMARY: By analysing cephalometrics before and after the treatment of Angle's class II division 1 malocclusion, soft tissue profile changes were observed, and to explore whether there was a correlation between the change of posterior occlusal plane (OP-P) and soft tissue profile. The study aimed to prov...
