Introduction
malocclusion, deformities of teeth
Orthodontics, as a discipline of stomatology, aims to study various kinds of malocclusion, including deformities of teeth, jaws and the craniofacial region.
As continuous developments are seen in digital technology, such technology has been applied in the education for undergraduates in recent decades. Digital technology possesses vivid images and operable processes, making it more intuitive, interactive and understandable than simply imparting theoretical knowledge to students, which may help improve the effect of teaching practice.
The digital cephalometric analysis system, widely incorporated in intelligent software, was developed to computerize the manual tasks and output the specific results automatically. It was reported to be more time-saving than traditional measurement method and helpful for reducing unnecessary errors during the measurement process.
