Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the position and orientation of the mandibular proximal segment and the volume of condylar and coronoid processes in class II and III patients submitted to bimaxillary orthognathic surgery, using cone beam computed tomography scans.
Methods: Class II and III patients who underwent bimaxillary orthognathic surgery were evaluated by fusing their preoperative virtual planning and postoperative outcomes. The CBCT scans were import into Dolphin Imaging Software and the images were superimposed. The superimposition of the planned and postoperative CBCT images was performed with the voxel-based method. Results: Differences were found in condylar resorption between class II and III.
Conclusion: The displacement of the mandibular proximal segment after orthognathic surgery was negligible and supported by the condyle and coronoid process, which demonstrated with a clinically non-relevant resorption and postoperative stability.
期刊介绍:
CRANIO: The Journal of Craniomandibular & Sleep Practice is the oldest and largest journal in the world devoted to temporomandibular disorders, and now also includes articles on all aspects of sleep medicine. The Journal is multidisciplinary in its scope, with editorial board members from all areas of medicine and dentistry, including general dentists, oral surgeons, orthopaedists, radiologists, chiropractors, professors and behavioural scientists, physical therapists, acupuncturists, osteopathic and ear, nose and throat physicians.
CRANIO publishes commendable works from outstanding researchers and clinicians in their respective fields. The multidisciplinary format allows individuals practicing with a TMD emphasis to stay abreast of related disciplines, as each issue presents multiple topics from overlapping areas of interest.
CRANIO''s current readership (thousands) is comprised primarily of dentists; however, many physicians, physical therapists, chiropractors, osteopathic physicians and other related specialists subscribe and contribute to the Journal.
