Abstract
There are numerous applications in craniofacial surgery with orbital volume (OV) modification. The careful management of the OV is fundamental to obtain good esthetic and functional results in orbital surgery. With the growth of computer-aided design - computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) technologies, patient-specific implants and custom-made reconstruction are being used increasingly. The precise measurement of the OV before surgery is becoming a necessity for craniofacial surgeons. There is no consensus on orbital volume measurements (OVMs). Manual segmentation of computed tomography (CT) images is the most used method to determine the OV, but it is time-consuming and very sensitive to operator errors. Here, we describe the various methods of orbital volumetry validated in the literature that can be used by surgeons in preoperative planning of orbital surgery. We also describe the leading software employed for these methods and discuss clinical use (posttraumatic enophthalmos prediction and orbital reconstruction) in which OVMs are important.

Abstract
The purpose of this technical note is to illustrate a simple and economical preoperative method for preshaping a reconstructive titanium plate in a fibula free flap (FFF) by using 3D printing of a virtually reconstructed mandible haptic model. The whole process consisted in creating a 3D model of the patient's mandible based on a CT-scan using a combination of free software (3Dslicer and ITK-snap), and simulating the surgical osteotomies and reconstruction, and print it as a guide for bending a reconstruction titanium plate. Reconstruction is performed using virtual cubes (1 to 3 cubes, according the number of FFF osteotomies). This virtual lab work is performed using 3D Builder® (Microsoft, Redmond) software. This technique allows obtaining an optimal plate application on the bony fragments. It facilitates reconstructive surgery with good functional (putting the patient back in an optimal dental occlusion based on the native maxilla) and aesthetic results. This technical note presents a simple and economical preoperative fabrication of a reconstructive plate through freeware and a low-cost 3D printer accessible to all surgeons.

Abstract
Craniofacial asymmetry, mandibular condylar modeling and temporomandibular joint disorders are common comorbidities of skeletally disproportionate malocclusions, but etiology of occurrence together is poorly understood. We compared asymmetry, condyle modeling stability and temporomandibular health in a cohort of 128 patients having orthodontics and orthognathic surgery to correct dentofacial deformity malocclusions. We also compared ACTN3 and ENPP1 genotypes for association to clinical conditions. Pre-surgical posterior-anterior cephalometric and panometric radiographic analyses; jaw pain and function questionnaire and clinical examination of TMD; and SNP-genotype analysis from saliva samples were compared to assess interrelationships. Almost half had asymmetries in need of surgical correction, which could be subdivided into four distinct morphological patterns. Asymmetric condyle modeling between sides was significantly greater in craniofacial asymmetry, but most commonly had an unanticipated pattern. Often, longer or larger condyles occurred on the shorter mandibular ramus side. Subjects with longer ramus but dimensionally smaller condyles were more likely to have self-reported TMD symptoms (p = 0.023) and significantly greater clinical diagnosis of TMD (p = 0 .000001), with masticatory myalgia most prominent. Genotyping found two significant genotype associations for ACTN3 rs1671064 (Q523R missense) p = 0.02; rs678397 (intronic SNP) p = 0.04 and one significant allele association rs1815739 (R577X nonsense) p = 0.00. Skeletal asymmetry, unusual condyle modeling and TMD are common and interrelated components of many dentofacial deformities. Imbalanced musculoskeletal functional adaptations and genetic or epigenetic influences contribute to the etiology, and require further investigation.

Abstract
Parental prenatal counseling is of paramount significance since parents often experience an emotional crisis with feelings of disappointment and helplessness. Three-dimensional (3D) printed model of the unborn child's face presenting with cleft lip and palate, based on ultrasonographic information, could be used to provide visual 3D information, further enhancing the prospective parent's comprehension of their unborn child's pathology and morphology, helping them to be psychologically prepared and improving the communication with the caretaking team. Prospective parents appreciate if prenatal counseling is available with the most detailed information as well as additional resources. The technique necessary to create 3D models after ultrasonographic information is explained, and the related costs are evaluated. The use of such models in parental education is then discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) is a morpho-functional surgery and post-surgical osteosynthesis may influence temporomandibular joint (TMJ) health. Our objective was to evaluate temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and TMJ symptoms after orthognathic surgery according to the type of osteosynthesis used in a population of patients with dentofacial deformities. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred and eighty-three consecutive patients undergoing orthodontic and maxillofacial surgery treatment for correction of their malocclusion were recruited for a two-year period at Lille University Hospital. All patients had at least a mandibular BSSO using Epker's technique. Each patient was examined before and one year after orthognathic surgery. We compared osteosynthesis by miniplates fixed with monocortical screws (n=42) and the hybrid fixation with bicortical retro-molar screws used with miniplates (n=141). TMJ health was assessed by monitoring TMD signs and symptoms according to the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD) and scores obtained from the "Jaw Pain Function" questionnaire. RESULTS There was no significant difference in pre-operative and one year post-operative RDC/TMD assessments (p≥0.91) or JPF score (p≥0.29) between the two types of osteosynthesis. CONCLUSION There was no difference in TMJ health between the two techniques of osteosynthesis after BSSO. CLINICAL RELEVANCE In our experience the hybrid technique fixation affords many advantages and does not influence postoperative TMD compared with osteosynthesis by miniplates.

Abstract
Diagnosis classification system of Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) is based on the biopsychosocial model of pain. The pathogenesis is poorly understood, leading to difficulties in treating these multifactorial conditions. The predisposing factors are pathophysiological, psychological or structural processes that alter the masticatory system and lead to an increase in the risk of development of TMD. The purpose of this integrative review was then to point out the specific mechanisms of TMD in the oral oncologic context to optimize the TMJ functional results in the management of patients with oral oncologic conditions. We explored in this paper the role of Axis II assessment of the biopsychosocial model of pain, the involvement of mechanical concepts such as dental occlusion, mandibular condyle positioning and related-structures reconstruction, and the stomatognathic changes induced by radiation.

Abstract
Noonan syndrome (NS) is a relatively common congenital multiple-anomaly syndrome, resembling Turner syndrome, but without chromosomal anomaly. Besides the unusual facies, the maxillofacial and dental features of patients with NS are not well-summarized in the literature. The aim of this study was to describe these features and propose specific treatment guidelines for practitioners involved in oral and maxillofacial care. A retrospective multicentric study was conducted of 14 patients who were referred for NS screening. In total, 10 patients were found to carry a mutation involved in NS or NS-related disorders. Fifty percent of the mutations affected PTPN11. All patients presented with the typical extraoral features, such as macrocephaly, hypertelorism, ptosis, triangular face shape and ear dystrophy. Intraoral manifestations, including malocclusion (maxillary transversal deficiency, crossbite, anterior open-bite and class II malocclusion), dental anomalies (delayed eruption, agenesis and dystrophy, odontoma) and radiologic jaw lesions were identified in five out of 10 patients. These findings were searched in a review of the literature to obtain a comprehensive description of oral and maxillofacial features in patients with NS. The proposed treatment guidelines emphasize frequent coagulation anomalies that need to be considered prior to surgery. Early dental assessment and yearly follow-up with oral prophylaxis are recommended. Orthodontics and orthognathic surgery are also of primary importance in the management of NS patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Currently, vascularized autologous bone transplantation is considered the gold standard for large mandibular continuity defect reconstruction. Donor site morbidity is a major concern. Therefore, bone tissue engineering (BTE) seems to be the ideal solution. Fresh-frozen bone allograft is the closest material to autologous bone. The purpose of this clinical report is to show a new technique of large mandibular continuity defect reconstruction using a fresh-frozen humeral allograft seeded with autologous iliac bone marrow aspirate and vascularized with a radial forearm flap. METHODS A 33-year-old man presented with severe cranio-facial trauma resulting in several fractures of the facial skeleton including a comminuted mandibular fracture from left parasymphysis to left angle, which caused a large continuity defect. RESULTS Result at 6 months was aesthetically and functionally satisfactory with osseointegration of the bone graft. DISCUSSION The authors chose to use iliac bone marrow aspirate to seed the allograft scaffold since hematopoietic stem cells and mesenchymal stem cell are able to differentiate into osteoblasts, ease of harvest of the iliac crest and its low rate of morbidity. Contemporary biomaterials used for BTE are bioceramic but bone is still the better scaffold to engineer bone and only allografting avoids donor site morbidity. Vascularization is one of the main challenges of BTE; insertion of autologous vascular bundles from pedicle or free flaps is 1 solution. The authors chose the radial forearm flap since the pedicle is long and the authors did not need a great amount of soft tissue.

Abstract
3D printed models are often very similar in shape and can be inadvertently switched if the related patient is not identified correctly. Here, we present a free and simple method to imprint letters and numbers in a 3D model. CT scan data were used to create an STL file of a patient's mandible. We then used Blender software to modify it with numbers and letters. We chose to imprint a series of four letters and numbers on our 3D models. We chose representative letters and numbers of the Latin alphabet. Six models were printed with an Up plus 2 - easy 120 3D printer with different character sizes and shape to evaluate the readability. All models were printed without any failures. Regarding readability, 2 mistakes were made among ten readers. The favourite extrusion depth was 3 mm, and the largest model was preferred. Identification can be done at different times and by different means, but identifying the 3D model during its creation is safer. Moreover these identified 3D models could be saved in the digital patient medical file. The identification location should take into consideration the future indication of the 3D printed medical model. We recommend that 3D identification should be done using at least 7.5mm high, with a depth of 3mm. Our method allows easy, fast and free 3D text. This 3D text identification printing method may be a first step towards the legal use of 3D printed models made within the hospital.

Abstract
Mandibular reconstruction using computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing cutting guides is currently a common procedure. However, inaccurate positioning of the cutting guide onto the fibular bone may result in osteosynthesis difficulties or imprecision in the reconstruction. A novel way to improve the stability of the cutting guides may be to add pillars in order for them to be suspended from the fibula, avoiding soft tissues interactions. We present the case of a 39-year-old male who needed mandibular reconstruction after a self-inflicted ballistic injury. We designed a customized cutting guide which included a set of 8 pillars allowing a suspension of the cutting guide 8 millimeters above the bone level. The pillars were perpendicular to one another, and allowed the operator to screw the cutting guide to the bone. The orthogonal position of the pillars enabled real stability during the osteotomies. In the operator experience, the length of the pillars was too important, and led to incomplete osteotomies, and the whole device was too bulky. However, with adaptations in the size of the pillars and the size of the whole device, this solution could be useful in cutting guide design to avoid impairments due to the soft tissues surrounding the fibula.

Abstract
A low-cost 3D printed model has been introduced into the oral and maxillofacial surgery teaching program of undergraduate students to improve education and mechanical comprehension of craniofacial trauma. Steps of the 3D printed haptic model building process are listed. 3D printed models of facial fractures were obtained from Data Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) data. Computed Aided Design and Manufacturing (CAD-CAM) freeware was used to create new fractures on the standard tessellation language (STL) file. 3D printed haptic model appears to be an efficient low-cost support for craniofacial trauma education of undergraduate students.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is an autosomal recessive disorder. It is due to a deficiency of 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase (DHCR7) that catalyses the reduction of 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC) to cholesterol. The aim of this review is to gather all information, concerning diagnostic characteristics of this syndrome, with an emphasis on intraoral symptom presentation. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a review of the literature, including articles between 1964 and 2017. Data was collected regarding the clinical diagnosis, pathophysiology and treatment of SLOS patients. Moreover, two clinical cases are described, illustrating the oral and facial anomalies of SLOS patients, at the regional university hospital of Lille, France. DISCUSSION Low cholesterol levels provoke a broad spectrum of clinical presentations, from mild to lethal forms. They can cause mental retardation, growth deficiency and congenital malformations. The SLOS features are often present at birth. Moreover, all the patients have facial anomalies. The dento-maxillofacial symptoms consist of crowded teeth, widely spaced incisors, oligodontia, polydontia, premature tooth eruption, enamel hypoplasia, a bifid uvula, broad alveolar ridges, bifid tongue, and Pierre-Robin syndrome symptoms (glossoptosis, retrognathia and cleft palate). These symptoms are warning signs and should increase the awareness of clinicians. CONCLUSIONS All healthcare professionals can contribute to the SLOS patient diagnostics. The dento-maxillofacial anomalies, illustrated by two case reports, could help to detect undiagnosed patients. An early detection might improve the outcome of these patients, as cholesterol supplementation can improve symptoms. This study can benefit orthodontists by enabling them to recognize the clinical signs of SLOS in order to refer these young patients to a specialist if the diagnosis has not been established.
