Research Abstract |
A new system for analyzing dentoalveolar morphology of skeletal asymmetry cases was developed. Defining the 3D coordinate system properly and objectively, this system made possible a practical evaluation of the dentoalveolar compensations on facial asymmetry cases. Furthermore, Unified Modeling Language (UML) based craniofacial modeling was defined preliminarily using the parameters from this system. Our new 3D measurement system and the UML modeling provide clinical efficiency for accurate diagnoses.
