Simulação computadorizada do perfil facial em cirurgia ortognática: precisão cefalométrica e avaliação por ortodontistas

Abstract: OBJETIVO: verificar a precisão de um programa de simulação computadorizada na predição de alterações no perfil facial em diferentes tipos de cirurgia ortognática. METODOLOGIA: utilizou-se radiografias e fotografias de perfil das fases pré-cirúrgica e final de 32 pacientes. As movimentações esqueléticas do procedimento cirúrgico foram reproduzidas no traçado pré-cirúrgico, gerando mudanças no perfil mole, originando o traçado e a imagem predictiva de perfil. Analisou-se o perfil da amostra total e dividida em d… Show more

“…1,2 Some studies found that the results of changes produced in the face by image manipulation software have only a reasonable degree of quality prediction. 10,11 Therefore, changes made directly on the patient's face may be more reliable than the ones obtained using computer software. In addition, the use of mandibular shifts is also justifiable because of the greater prevalence of facial asymmetries that affect the mandible rather than the maxilla.…”
