A comparison of soft tissue outcomes in skeletal Class II malocclusion: Anterior segmental osteotomy vs. non-surgical orthodontic treatment
ASO is advised if the required adjustment for the upper and lower lips is -4.0 mm and -5.0 mm, respectively. For modifications of -2.0 mm, NASO is preferred. This study provides clinical guidelines on the choice between ASO and NASO based on the required lip movement measurements.
