Abstract Objective To examine the patterns of pretreatment facial soft tissue shape in orthodontic cases with premolar extraction using artificial intelligence (AI) and to investigate the corresponding changes.

For each record, the outlines of the nose-lip-chin profile and corresponding 21 cephalometric variables were extracted.

Dentoskeletal and soft tissue facial form changes observed after treatment were compared statistically (P |
