title: Soft tissue cephalometric analysis for orthognathic surgery.
abstract: A soft tissue cephalometric analysis designed for the patient who requires surgical-orthodontic car was developed to complement a previously reported dentoskeletal analysis. To make it clinically practical, the analysis has been reduced to its most relevant and significant measurements. Used along with other diagnostic aids, this soft tissue evaluation will enable the clinician to achieve good facial esthetics for his or her patients.
