Despite working on the hard tissues, the pronounced effects of the orthodontic treatment occur in the soft tissues. One of the most recent sof tissue cephalometric analysis is the soft tissue cephalometric analysis (STCA) that first presented in 1999 by Arnett et al. Patients' natural head posture, centric relationship and relaxed lip position should be obtained during clinical and cephalometric examination .After these conditions are obtained, the face of the patient is analyzed in three dimension and essential measurements are done. Metallic signs are put on the specific soft tissues afterwards and the cephalometric radiograph is taken. Facial analysis is accomplished via determination of the true vertical line on the cephalometric film and the essential measurements on the soft and hard tissues. The Arnet Soft Tissue Cephalometric Analysis makes it possible to evaluate the soft tissue and skeletal structures detailed and objective, regardless of the relationship with cranial base.

ARNETT YUMUŞAK DOKU SEFALOMETRİK ANALİZİ

Öz

Ortodontik tedaviler her ne kadar sert dokular üzerinde yürütülse de tedavinin asıl göze çarpan etkileri yumuşak dokular üzerinde görülür. Yumuşak doku üzerinde ortodontik tedavinin etkilerini ölçen en güncel yöntemlerden biri de Arnett ve arkadaşlarının 1999 yılında tanıttıkları Yumuşak Doku Sefalometrik Analizi'dir (YDSA). YDSA ile doğru verilerin alınabilmesi için klinik muayene ve sefalometrik filmin alınması esnasında hastanın doğal baş konumunda olması, çenelerin sentrik ilişkide ve dudaklarının istirahat pozisyonunda konumlandırılması gereklidir.Bu koşullar sağlandıktan sonra ilk olarak klinik muayene gerçekleştirilir, yüz 3 boyutlu olarak değerlendirilir ve gerekli ölçümler yapılır. Daha sonra yüzün belirli yumuşak doku noktalarına metalik işaretler konularak sefalometrik film çekilir. Sefalometrik filmde gerçek dikey çizgi belirlenerek sert ve yumuşak dokuda ölçümler yapılır ve bu şekilde fasial analiz tamamlanır. Arnet Yumuşak Doku Sefalometrik Analizi ile yumuşak doku ve iskeletsel yapıların kafa kaidesiyle olan ilişkisine bakılmaksızın detaylı ve objektif değerlendirilmesi yapılabilmektedir.
