Abstract

Orthognathic surgery has seen many developments and advances throughout its evolutionary history. Recent trends have seen a shift away from traditional model surgery and have sought to embrace more contemporary methods of virtual surgical planning (VSP) [1]. Since its inception, orthognathic surgery has successfully and predictably been planned and performed by means of traditional, analytical model surgery. Introduction of the cone-beam CT in 1998 in Europe and then in the USA in 2001 provoked the beginnings of a paradigm shift [2, 3]. The literature has since been replete with studies focused on providing evidence that virtual surgical planning is as effective and predictable as traditional model surgery [4–6].
