Abstract:
Cranio-facial dissymmetries especially concern orthodontics and orthognathic surgeons, but also all clinicians. A review of the conventional ways to study cranio-facial dissymmetries and their limits are presented. Progress of medical scanning allow to acceed to new methods of investigation and evaluation of cranio-facial morphology and dissymmetries. A cranio-facial dissymmetries analysis is suggested, based on CT, vestibular orientation, and an architectural and structural analysis, based on nervous indicators of the trigeminal nerve.

Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
