Computer-aided surgery, rarely used in orthognathic surgery, benefits from a specialized navigation system for mandibular condyle repositioning. This validated system is now routinely used, offering educational advantages.

Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Medical Technology
  • Surgical Navigation

Context:

  • Computer-aided surgery (CAS) is established in many medical fields but underutilized in orthognathic surgery.
  • Orthognathic surgery presents unique challenges for precise repositioning, particularly of the mandibular condyle.
  • Technological advancements have driven the evolution of surgical navigation systems.

Purpose:

  • To present a navigation system specifically developed and refined for orthognathic surgery.
  • To highlight the system's adaptation for accurate mandibular condyle repositioning.
  • To underscore the system's clinical validation and routine adoption.

Summary:

  • A navigation system for orthognathic surgery, focusing on mandibular condyle repositioning, was developed 20 years ago and has undergone continuous technological improvement.
