Abstract
Introducción. El tercio inferior constituye un aspecto fundamental para la estética. El odontólogo debe ser capaz de realizar mediciones en el área con una gran exactitud y precisión. Para ello, dispone de métodos directos, como el calibre digital, y de métodos indirectos, como la fotografía o el escáner facial.Material y método. Se seleccionan 30 participantes sobre los cuales se marcaron seis puntos antropométricos faciales que representan cinco distancias. Estas distancias se midieron directamente sobre la cara del paciente con calibre digital, indirectamente mediante fotografía e indirectamente mediante escáner facial. Se compararon las mediciones entre los tres grupos para establecer si había diferencias entre ellos o no. Resultados. Se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los tres métodos de medición en cuatro de las cinco distancias medidas. No se determinó qué método de medición fue superior o inferior a los otros. Conclusión: Existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los métodos de medición directo con calibre digital,indirecto con fotografía 2D e indirecto con escáner facial 3D. No existe un método de medición que demuestre superioridad ante los otros.
Introduction. The lower third of the face constitutes a fundamental aspect for aesthetics. The dentist must be able to measure the area with great accuracy and precision. With this purpose, the dentist has direct methods, like the digital caliper, and indirect methods, like photography or facial scans. Material and methods. 30 participants were selected, on which six facial anthropometric points, that represent five distances, were marked. These distances were measured directly from the patients’ face with a digital caliper, indirectly by photography and indirectly by facial scan. The measurements from the three groups were compared to establish whether there are differences between them or not. Results. Statistically significant differences were found between the three measuring methods in four of the five measurements. It is not determined which of the methods is superior or inferior to the others. Conclusion. There are statistically significant differences between the direct measuring method with digital caliper, the indirect method with 2D photography and the indirect method with 3D facial scan. No method showed superiority when compared to the others.
