PURPOSE The purpose of this prospective multicenter study was to assess the accuracy of a computer-aided surgical simulation (CASS) protocol for orthognathic surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS The accuracy of the CASS protocol was assessed by comparing planned outcomes with postoperative outcomes of 65 consecutive patients enrolled from 3 centers. Computer-generated surgical splints were used for...

PurposeThree-dimensional (3D) assessment of orthognathic surgery is often time consuming, relies on manual re-identification anatomical landmarks or limited to non-segmental osteotomies. The purpose the present study was propose and validate an automated approach for 3D accuracy postoperative outcome segmental bimaxillary surgery.MethodsA semi-automatic developed validated virtual surgical anal...

Purpose: This study aimed to measure the amount of change in mandibular angle, intergonial width, and ramus angulation due intersegmental interference changes condyle position after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSRO) patients with prognathism evaluate correlation between them. Materials Methods: A total 32 who underwent setback using BSSRO mandible manage skeletal during years 2018 2020...

This study used the national database of health insurance claims and specific checkups Japan （NDB）, world’s leading public medical “big data” provided by Ministry Health, Labour, Welfare, to carry out a survey with aim elucidating actual situation orthognathic surgeries performed in over past six years. The period was years between 2014 2019. revealed: 1） number people operated on 16,405 patien...

BACKGROUND Aesthetic skeletal surgery of the face is a powerful tool to alter the facial skeleton; the facial form is enhanced through the use of alloplastic implants and osteotomies of the facial bones. However, the ultimate aesthetic appearance is dictated by how the soft tissue envelope drapes over the altered skeletal foundation. Intraoperative and postoperative fat grafting enhances the fi...

Maxillo-mandibular asymmetry has numerous aetiologies: congenital, traumatic, iatrogenic and post-oncologic. Patients with congenital dentofacial malformations are generally submitted to orthognathic surgery and/or additional procedures (genioplasty, alloplastic implants) with satisfactory results. However, despite achieving skeletal symmetry, noticeable facial asymmetry may persist.This study ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of aesthetic facial surgery with concurrent nitrogen plasma skin regeneration. METHODS During a 28-month period, we independently completed 272 concurrent procedures in 95 patients aged 42 to 80 years in whom nitrogen plasma skin regeneration was performed immediately on completion of various aesthetic procedures, including brow-lift, blepharoplas...
