Dentofacial Deformities

Brief summary

This study aims to evaluate the relationship between hard and soft tissue advancement during orthognathic surgery. The use of typical pre and post operative imaging consisting of con-beam computed tomography will be used, in conjunction with a 3D camera to evaluate hard and soft tissue points before and after surgery.

Interventions

PROCEDUREOrthognathic surgery

Patient's pre and post operative hard and soft tissues will be evaluated retrospectively through the use of con-beam computed tomography imaging for hard tissue evaluation and 3DMd three dimensional photography for soft tissue imaging.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Hard and soft tissue changepre operative and post operative imaging is taken immediately before, and 24 hours post operatively, respectively.The difference between standard pre and post operative hard and soft tissue positioning will be evaluated. Comparisons will be made between the actual bony advancement of a particular bony landmark, and compare that advancement to the advancement seen with a corresponding soft tissue landmark.
