Virtual occlusion in planning orthognathic surgical procedures

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2010
Accurate preoperative planning is mandatory for orthognathic surgery. One of the most important aims of this planning process is obtaining good postoperative dental occlusion. Recently, 3D image-based planning systems have been introduced that enable a surgeon to define different osteotomy planes preoperatively and to assess the result of moving ...

Orthognathic surgical procedures on non-growing patients with maxillary transverse deficiency

Seminars in Orthodontics, 2019
Abstract The treatment of maxillary transverse deficiency in post-pubertal patients has been an area of disagreement among orthodontists. Much of the controversy is over the timing of when it is appropriate for these patients to be referred to an oral and maxillofacial surgeon for an adjunctive surgical procedure or whether traditional orthodontic ...

Administration of General Anesthesia for Outpatient Orthognathic Surgical Procedures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2011
The administration of anesthesia has shifted away from the traditional hospital setting to an enormous increase in the use of outpatient facilities. The development of short-acting anesthetics, advances in surgical techniques, and paradigm shifts accepting targeted hospital admission and preoperative testing have allowed the acceptance of outpatient ...

Custom-Machined Miniplates and Bone-Supported Guides for Orthognathic Surgery: A New Surgical Procedure

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2016
Several surgical strategies exist to improve accuracy in orthognathic surgery, but ideal planning and treatment have yet to be described. The purpose of this study was to present and assess the accuracy of a virtual orthognathic positioning system (OPS), based on the use of bone-supported guides for placement of custom, highly rigid, machined titanium ...

Surgical accuracy of three-dimensional virtual planning: a pilot study of bimaxillary orthognathic procedures including maxillary segmentation

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2016
This retrospective study evaluated the precision and positional accuracy of different orthognathic procedures following virtual surgical planning in 30 patients. To date, no studies of three-dimensional virtual surgical planning have evaluated the influence of segmentation on positional accuracy and transverse expansion.

Three-Dimensional Changes in the Upper Airway of Skeletal Class III Patients After Different Orthognathic Surgical Procedures

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2018
We hypothesized that 3-dimensional changes in the upper airway of patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion are different after mandibular setback and maxillary advancement (MSMA) compared with mandibular setback (MS) and that upper airway changes and the amount of jaw movement are correlated.Skeletal Class III patients who underwent MS surgery or ...

How long should antibiotics be administered following orthognathic surgical procedures? A prospective double-blind pilot study

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2004
Statement of the Problem: Controversy continues to exist regarding the need of postoperative antibiotics for patients undergoing orthognathic surgery. The objective of this study is to compare the administration of a oneday versus a five-day antibiotic regimen following intraoral orthognathic surgery.
