This study presents a novel simulation model for orthognathic surgery, avoiding computed tomography. The system analyzes bone and soft tissue movement, aiding in optimal surgical planning for improved facial outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Medical simulation
  • Orthognathic surgery
  • 3D facial modeling

Background:

  • Orthognathic surgery planning typically relies on computed tomography (CT) data.
  • Accurate simulation of bone and soft tissue movement is crucial for successful surgical outcomes.
  • Alternative methods for creating patient-specific simulation models are needed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a simulation model for orthognathic patients without using computed tomography (CT) data.
  • To analyze bone and soft tissue dynamics during simulated surgical procedures.
  • To evaluate the utility of the simulation system in surgical planning.

Main Methods:

  • Acquired patient morphological data using a laser scanner.
  • Integrated dental and facial data into a cephalometric coordinate system via projection matching.

  • Applied the simulation to a case of mandibular prognathism with a planned mandibular setback.

    • Main Results:

    • The simulation accurately depicted simulated osteotomies and subsequent bone segment movements.
    • Analysis revealed potential collisions and gaps between bone segments post-surgery.
    • Facial soft tissue changes were visualized, providing insights into aesthetic outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed simulation system offers a viable alternative to CT-based planning for orthognathic surgery.
    • It effectively visualizes bone and soft tissue behavior, aiding in the selection of optimal surgical techniques.
    • The system is particularly valuable when precise consideration of facial soft tissue alterations is required.
