Advancements in computers and imaging especially over the last 10 years have permitted
the adoption of three-dimensional imaging protocols in the health care field. Additionally, the …

In the field of maxillofacial surgery, there is a huge demand from surgeons to be able to pre-
operatively predict the new facial outlook after surgery. Besides the big interest for the …

We propose a computationally efficient, bio-mechanically relevant soft-tissue simulation
method for cranio-maxillofacial (CMF) surgery. Special emphasis is given to comply with the …

This study tests computer imaging software (SurgiCase-CMF®, Materialise) that enables
surgeons to perform virtual orthognathic surgical planning using a three dimensional (3D) …

PURPOSE: Facial soft tissue prediction in orthognathic surgery could be a valuable aid to
preview the results and determine the best surgical treatment. After many years …

Three-dimensional virtual simulation of orthognathic surgery is now a well-established
method in maxillo-facial surgery. The commercial software packages are still burdened by a …

Computer-based surgery simulation is a rapidly emerging and increasingly important area of
research that combines a number of disciplines for the common purpose of improving …

With the accelerated aging of world population, complete denture prosthesis plays an
increasingly important role in mouth rehabilitation. In addition to recovering stomatognathic …

The motivation for orthognathic surgery is to improve facial appearance and quality of life.
This study aimed to validate a three-dimensional (3D) orthognathic planning programme …
