2. 1937……
In 1937
Broadbent publishes two
papers, which describes
details of the technique that
he devised to establish
craniofacial measurements in
normal children.
For all this, Broadbent, with
much justice, is considered
the father of radiographic
cephalometry.
3. USES OF CONVENTIONAL CEPHALOMETRY
Helps in diagnosis.
Helps in classification of skeletal and dental
abnormalities.
Helps in planning treatment of an individual.
Helps in evaluation of treatment results.
Helps in predicting growth related changes.
6. METHOD
-patient is made to assume natural head position with relaxed lips.
-radio opaque markers are placed on patients face and lat and A.P.
ceph are made.
-lateral and frontal photos are made in the same position.
-photo negatives are enlarged and super imposed on the
radiographic image.
-the projection of enlarged negative is put onto a photographic film
which produces a transparent photograph which can be
superimposed over cephalometric film
8. Prediction planning of the soft tissue changes following bimaxillary
osteotomy using photocephalometry.
9. ADVANTAGES
-Quantitative information of the soft tissue.
-Direct measurements between the skeletal and soft tissue
landmarks.
-Changes in soft tissue can be compared pre and post op.
-Useful in serial growth studies.
DISADVANTAGES
-Difference in enlargement factors between photos and X-rays
with compromised accuracy.
-Complex procedure.
-Expensive.
12. SOFTWARE SYSTEMS FOR CEPHALOMETRIC
ANALYSIS.
Rocky Mountain Orthodontics (RMO) was the first to provide the
dental profession in the late 1960s with a computer-aided
cephalometric diagnosis.

16. At Present……
3D IMAGING
Many 3D techniques have been used in attempt to capture facial
topography and to meet short comings of 2D methods . These
include,
1. Morphoanalysis
2. LASER Scanning
3. 3D CT Scanning
4. 3D UltraSonoGraphy
5. 3D FacialMorphometry
6. Moire Topography
7. Contour Photography
8. Stereolithography
9. Streophotogrammetry
17. STEREOLITHOGRAPHY
Brix et al introduced 3D model planning to maxillofacialsurgery
in 1985 using copy milling technique.
Stereolithography has replaced traditional CAD/CAM, in
making anatomical models.
Term Stereolithography / 3 Dimensional printing was coined by
CHARLES W.HULL in 1986.(patent)
First commercial stereolithographic prototype generator SLA-1
system was introduced at Autofact show in Detroit, Nov 1987.
18. Goals of 3D modeling for surgical application
1. To create accurate anatomical models.
2. To improve understanding of anatomical variation between
individuals.
3. Provide working model for pre operative surgical
simulation.
4. To improve patient education.
5. To manufacture custom implantable devices.
6. Maintain cost effectiveness.
19. STEPS IN PRODUCING AN ACCURATE
3D PROTOTYPE
Step 1:- Utilize accurate imaging
modality to obtain anatomical data,
viz CT/MRI.
Step2:- Design the prototype using
CAD.
Step3:- Build the prototype with
stereolithography.
21. LIMITATIONS OF STEREOLITHOGRAPHY
Main limitation is the cost factor.
Higher radiation dose to which the patient is exposed.
Time consuming.
Study by Erickson et al about opinion of surgeons on stereolithography,
In 92% cases there was improvement in planning.
73% surgeons used models to educate the people.
77% surgeons believed using Stereolithography models saved
opreration room time.
73% surgeons referred to models during surgery to visualize the
approach.
-Erickson et al ‘An opinion survey of reported benefits from the use of stereolithographic
models’ JOMS 1999; 57, 1040-1043.
22. The imaging modalities needed to create a patient model
are,
1. MAXILLOFACIAL CT,
2. STEREOPHOTOGRAMMETRY IMAGE OF THE
FACE, AND
3.
LASER-SCANNED MODEL OF THE DENTITION.
24. An interactive software
tool can manipulate the raw
CT DICOM data.
The maxillofacial skeleton
data segmented (isolated),
and 3D skeletal model
rendered for visualization.
25. PRINCIPLE OF STEREOPHOTOGRAMMETRY
There are two geometric strategies for measuring in three
dimensions. They are
1. Orthogonal measurement-CT scans to 3D
2. Measurement by triangulation-Stereophotogrammetry
Systems that measure by triangulation analogize the
geometry of mammalian stereoscopic vision.
Stereophotogrammetry, first suggested for use in dentistry
by Mannsbach in 1922.
The earliest clinical use of stereophotogrammetry was
reported by Thalmann - Degan in 1944
26. I FACIAL IMAGE ACQUISITION
A standard stereo camera
set-up is used to capture the
facial image pairs.
Digitally controlled slide
projectors are used to flash
separate random texture and
FACIAL IMAGE ACQUISITION
structured light patterns
onto the subject's face.
Using digitally controlled
switching between cameras
and projectors, the time
between capture is less than
one second.
27.
28. The reconstructed
representation of the face can
be rotated on a standard
computer monitor and the 3D
coordinates of any visible point
can be captured by pointing and
clicking with a standard mouse
or other similar device
33. STEPS IN SPLINT FABRICATION
•Neither CT or CBCT provided accurate enough
images of the patient’s dental structure.
• So the dental casts were scanned using
an optical 3D laser with a resolution of 20micron, to
visualize the 3D models via surface rendering.
• This gives precise details of the shape
and size of the patient’s teeth.
•3D treatment plan was sent to the CAD/CAM Centre
so that stereolithographic surgical splints could be
manufactured.

Surgical Simulation
• Bone segmentation according to surgical
procedure
• Real time mobilization of bone segments with
6 degrees of freedom
•Prediction of facial soft tissue adaptations
according to underlying bone repositioning
36. THE FUTURE…
Navigation surgery
Provides the surgeons with a 3D visualization at the tip of
surgical instruments.
Require a sophisticated system which consists of a stereo pair
of infra red cameras which track and record the 3D orientation
of a surgical instrument within the field of vision.
Use of a standard occlusal surgical wafer may then not be
required as the positioning of the osteotomy segment is guided by
the recorded change in the 3D coordinates of certain landmarks
from the preoperative to the pre-planned position.
