Orthognathic surgery and aesthetics: planning treatment to achieve functional and aesthetic goals.
Computerized video imaging is a valuable adjunct for communication with patients and planning orthognathic surgical treatment. The incorporation of adjunctive soft tissue procedures to enhance the final aesthetic result of orthognathic surgery is a valuable addition to the orthodontic and orthognathic treatment plan. This paper presents the use of video imaging techniques in the planning and execution of comprehensive functional and aesthetically orientated orthodontic and surgical treatment.
