Title: The role of 3D technologies in orthognathic surgery

Prof. Univ. Dr. Victor Costan, Prof. Univ. Dr. Irina Zetu

 

Abstract:

Orthognathic surgery is one of the great beneficiaries of the development of 3D technologies. Their use starts from the simplest indications such as the use of intraoral scanners to the use of jaw movement design programs in orthognathic surgery. Last but not least, the correction of asymmetries is much easier to manage through 3D modeling. The usefulness goes from the simple realization of cephalometrics to the educational process, which allows residents to better understand the complex surgeon-orthodontist collaboration.
