The difference in hinge axis position determined by virtual versus conventional planning in orthognathic surgery
摘要
The aim of the study was to compare the hinge axis position (Ax) determined by virtual (VSP) versus conventional orthognathic surgery planning (CSP).
MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included 320 (female/male = 204/116, median age 24.0 years) adult patients who received single- or two-jaw surgery originally planned using the CSP method and subsequently reevaluated using the VSP method. Three parameters (
Both methods differed significantly with a bias of -1.83
There were statistically significant differences in all parameters; however, these differences were small and within the range generally considered to be clinically acceptable.
