Book Description
Facial esthetics affect an individual's quality of life, self-image, social behavior, and public perception. The oro-facial region, in particular, plays a pivotal role in facial esthetics as dento-facial deformities can cause an individual to be perceived as less attractive, less successful, and less socially acceptable. The ability of orthodontic treatment to alter the soft-tissue facial form makes it a powerful tool to improve facial esthetics. Orthodontic treatment exhibits the most control over the soft-tissue in the lower third of the face, specifically the profile, position of the lips, and lower-third convexity. The position of the soft-tissue in this region plays an important role in the perception of facial attractiveness. Due to the importance of the oro-facial region in facial esthetics, it is of the utmost importance that orthodontists better understand the effects of their treatment on the soft-tissue. The majority of literature evaluates soft tissue changes using 2-D imaging, such as a profile photo or lateral cephalogram; however, the evaluation of soft-tissue changes requires more than just what is seen in a 2-D sagittal image. It is essential that this knowledge is obtained in the most accurate and realistic way possible; to understand changes in three-dimensions instead of two. Using 3dMD technology, pre- and post- three-dimensional soft tissue images of dental Class II patients with high or low mandibular plane angle, treated with or without extraction therapy, were compared. The objective was to determine the effect of extraction treatment on the soft-tissue of different facial types. Subjects were sampled from a database of patients treated by orthodontic residents under the supervision of faculty at the graduate orthodontic clinic of the Maurice H. Kornberg School of Dentistry at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. Pre- and post-treatment 3dMD images were obtained of 42 dental Class II, high-angle (FMA ≥ 28) and low-angle (FMA
