A three-dimensional method for evaluating changes in lip morphology following correction of functional anterior crossbite

Conclusions Post-treatment imaging showed forward movement of the upper lip, backward movement of the lower lip, and backward rotation of the soft tissue in the submental region. The three-dimensional method described in the present study improves the evaluation of facial morphology and provides insight into the changes in the lip morphology of preadolescent patients.
