BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Orthognathic surgery consultations are essential for helping patients understand how their facial appearance may change after surgery. However, current visualization methods are often inefficient and inaccurate due to limite...
Orthognathic surgery, or corrective jaw surgery, is performed to correct severe dentofacial deformities and is increasingly sought for cosmetic purposes. Accurate prediction of surgical outcomes is essential for selecting the optimal treatment plan a...
OBJECTIVE: This retrospective study aimed to evaluate morphometric changes in mandibular condyles of patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion following two-jaw orthognathic surgery planned using virtual surgical planning (VSP) and analysed with ...

OBJECTIVE: Artificial intelligence (AI) has been increasingly utilized in diagnosis of skeletal deformities, while its role in treatment planning and outcome prediction of jaw corrective surgeries with 3-dimensional (3D) imaging remains underexplored...
Postoperative facial appearance prediction is vital for surgeons to make orthognathic surgical plans and communicate with patients. Conventional biomechanical prediction methods require heavy computations and time-consuming manual operations which ha...
OBJECTIVES: In orthognatic surgery, one of the primary determinants for reliable three-dimensional virtual surgery planning (3D VSP) and an accurate transfer of 3D VSP to the patient in the operation room is the condylar seating. Incorrectly seated c...

The surgery-first approach (SFA) orthognathic surgery can be beneficial due to reduced overall treatment time and earlier profile improvement. The objective of this study was to utilize deep learning to predict the treatment modality of SFA or the or...
The increasing application of virtual surgical planning (VSP) in orthognathic surgery implies a critical need for accurate prediction of facial and skeletal shapes. The craniofacial relationship in patients with dentofacial deformities is still not u...
