Abstract

BACKGROUND: The morphology of the zygomatic complex significantly influences facial appearance, leading to a focus on zygomatic osteotomy. The current technique, the "L-shaped" zygomatic osteotomy, requires a small incision and preoperative osteotomy design for an osteotomy guide. However, the use of multiple software programs in the design process makes it time-consuming and clinically challenging.
