Abstract
The majority of studies assessing root changes following maxillary orthognathic surgery in conjunction with orthodontic treatment have been either short-term or two dimensionally assessed, which is prone to human error. There is no standard 3D protocol for objectively quantifying root changes. This doctoral thesis aimed to present and validate a novel automated approach for objectively quantifying linear and volumetric root changes on CBCT images following combined orthodontic-orthognathic surgical treatment.
