Comparative Evaluation of Photogrammetric, Radiographic, and Direct Measurements in Facial Analysis: A Cross-Sectional Study
Photogrammetry is a viable, noninvasive alternative to cephalometry, offering ease of use and radiation-free assessment. However, variations owing to head positioning, lack of depth perception, and minor magnification errors must be considered. Future studies should integrate three-dimensional imaging to enhance its accuracy and clinical applicability.
