COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF FACIAL AESTHETIC CHANGES IN PATIENTS WITH DEEP BITE USING DIGITAL PHOTOGRAMMETRY AND CEPHALOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Background. Deep bite is one of the most common vertical dentofacial anomalies and is accompanied not only by impaired occlusal relationships but also by pronounced changes in facial aesthetics, temporomandibular joint function, and masticatory muscles. Modern digital diagnostic methods make it possible to objectively assess changes in the facial soft tissues and the relationship between aesthetic parameters and cephalometric measurements. Objective. To perform a comprehensive analysis of facial aesthetic changes in patients with deep bite based on digital photogrammetry and cephalometric examination.
