Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Medical Imaging
  • Computer-Aided Surgery

Background:

  • Traditional jaw surgery planning can lack precision.
  • Transferring virtual surgical plans to the operating room presents challenges.
  • There is a need for integrated systems to improve accuracy and efficiency in maxillofacial procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the development of computer-aided methods for precise jaw surgery.
  • To present a comprehensive computer-aided surgery system for maxillofacial procedures.
  • To highlight the benefits of advanced software in surgical planning and execution.

Main Methods:

  • Construction of 3D surface models from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
  • Dynamic cephalometry, semiautomatic mirroring, and interactive bone cutting.
  • Virtual surgical planning, including bony segment repositioning and manufacturing of positioning splints.
  • Real-time intraoperative guidance using computer displays and 3D positioning guides.

Main Results:

  • The developed system enables high precision in transferring virtual plans to the operating room.
  • Computer-aided surgery facilitates complex case management and improves surgical accuracy.
  • Advanced software enhances diagnosis, treatment planning, and surgical resident training.

Conclusions:

  • Computer-aided surgery offers significant benefits for patients, surgical practice, and orthodontic finishing.
  • The system increases the flexibility, detail, and accuracy of surgical plans.
  • Enhanced operative precision, control, and case documentation are key advantages.
