JOURNAL OF STOMATOLOGY, ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL SURGERY 2024:101853. [PMID: 38555078 DOI: 10.1016/j.jormas.2024.101853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Tooth-supported surgical guides have demonstrated superior accuracy compared with bone-supported guides. This study aimed to modify the fabrication of tooth-supported guides for compatibility with tumor resection procedures and investigate their accuracy. METHODS Patients with tumors who underwent osteotomy with the assistance of modified tooth- or bone-supported surgical guides were included. Virtual surgical planning (VSP) was employed to align three dimensional (3D) models extracted from intraoperative computed tomography (CT) images. The distances and angular deviations between the actual osteotomy plane and preoperative plane were recorded. A comparative analysis of osteotomy discrepancies between tooth-supported and bone-supported guides, as well as among tooth-supported guides based on CT, cone-beam CT (CBCT), or intraoral scanner (IOS) was conducted. The factors influencing the precision of the guides were analyzed. RESULTS Sixty patients with 81 resection planes were included in this study. In the tooth-supported group, the mean deviations in the osteotomy plane and angle were 1.39 mm and 4.30°, respectively, whereas those of the bone-supported group were 2.16 mm and 4.95°. In the tooth-supported isotype guide groups, the mean deviations of the osteotomy plane were 1.39 mm, 1.47 mm, 1.23 mm across CT, CBCT, and IOS, respectively. The accuracy of the modified tooth-supported guides remained consistent regardless of number and position of the teeth supporting the guide and location of the osteotomy lines. CONCLUSIONS The findings indicate that the modified tooth-supported surgical guides demonstrated high accuracy in the maxillofacial region, contributing to a reduction in the amount of surgically detached soft tissue.

Abstract
The accuracy of three-dimensional (3D) facial skeletal surface models derived from radiographic volumes has not been extensively investigated yet. For this, ten human dry skulls were scanned with two Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) units, a CT unit, and a highly accurate optical surface scanner that provided the true reference models. Water-filled head shells were used for soft tissue simulation during radiographic imaging. The 3D surface models that were repeatedly segmented from the radiographic volumes through a single-threshold approach were used for reproducibility testing. Additionally, they were compared to the true reference model for trueness measurement. Comparisons were performed through 3D surface approximation techniques, using an iterative closest point algorithm. Differences between surface models were assessed through the calculation of mean absolute distances (MAD) between corresponding surfaces and through visual inspection of facial surface colour-coded distance maps. There was very high reproducibility (approximately 0.07 mm) and trueness (0.12 mm on average, with deviations extending locally to 0.5 mm), and no difference between radiographic scanners or settings. The present findings establish the validity of lower radiation CBCT imaging protocols at a similar level to the conventional CT images, when 3D surface models are required for the assessment of facial morphology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the geometric accuracy and measurement reliability of 3-dimensional (3D) reconstructed models of the mandible created from cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images obtained with 0.2-mm and 0.4-mm voxel sizes with the reference standard model and compare the accuracy of the CBCT-based models to each other. STUDY DESIGN The reference standard 3D model of a dry human mandible was obtained using a white light scanner. The mandible was scanned with CBCT 10 times at each voxel size. The models created from the CBCT data were compared with the reference standard by using a point-based rigid registration algorithm where the distance differences between the superimposed CBCT models and the reference standard model were recorded. The measurements derived from the 2 CBCT-based scans were also compared. RESULTS Mean deviations from the reference standard for 0.2-mm and 0.4-mm voxel scans were 0.4342 mm and 0.4580 mm, respectively (P ≥ .16). The CBCT scans with both 0.2-mm and 0.4-mm voxels produced good measurement reliability and did not significantly differ from each other (P ≥ .20). CONCLUSIONS CBCT scans with 0.2-mm and 0.4-mm voxel sizes delivered similarly accurate models. Larger voxels can be used to minimize radiation exposure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to analyse and compare morphometric measurements of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in two groups of cats with brachycephalic and mesocephalic craniofacial skull conformations using multislice CT and cone beam CT. METHODS CT records of 20 cats without TMJ pathology were included in the study, and were divided into two groups according to those with mesocephalic or brachycephalic skull conformation. Width and depth of the mandibular fossa, width and height of the head of the mandible, and two different angles were measured in 40 TMJs. RESULTS TMJ conformation differed between groups: 3/6 parameters were statistically different. Brachycephalic cats had a significantly narrower mandibular fossa, a shorter head of the mandible and a wider angle of congruence (angle 2). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE The results provide morphometric measurements that can serve as a reference tool for the veterinary radiologist and surgeon when TMJ evaluation is necessary. Moreover, the study identified significant differences between the two craniofacial skull conformations.

Abstract
Objectives:
This study investigated the effect of unilateral occlusal elevation in the molar region on facial and mandibular development in growing rats.
Materials and Methods:
Thirty 5-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly allocated to three groups (n = 10). The control group was allowed to develop naturally until 9 weeks of age. A device fitted on the caused unilateral occlusal elevation at 5 weeks in the removal group. The device was removed at 7 weeks and the rats were observed until 9 weeks. In the continuation group, the same device fitted on the left-side molars caused unilateral occlusal elevation continuously for 9 weeks. All groups underwent craniofacial scanning with three-dimensional micro-computed tomography at 5, 7, and 9 weeks.
Results:
In the removal and continuation groups, the mandible was displaced to the unelevated side. At 7 weeks, both these groups showed greater skeletal growth and molar extrusion on the elevated side, with significant differences between the elevated and unelevated sides. At 9 weeks, there were significant differences in both skeletal and alveolar growth between these groups; the asymmetry ameliorated in the removal group.
Limitations:
We evaluated three-dimensional morphometry by fitting a device to rat molars for a short observation period; thus, future studies are warranted to acquire data following long-term observation.
Conclusion:
Unilateral occlusal elevation during the growth period suppressed molar eruption and extrusion on the elevated and unelevated sides, respectively. The height of the mandibular ramus increased on the elevated side, resulting in asymmetric growth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cone beam CT (CBCT) machines do not always allow for patients to be scanned in the ideal position for image acquisition. This study aimed to investigate the influence of the position/angulation of the mandible relative to the X-ray beam of a CBCT machine. METHODS Five sequential CBCT scans were captured of a human mandible at each angulation of 10°, 20°, 30°, and 40° using a coronal and sagittal positioning. Inspection software utilized a best-fit alignment to automatically calculate the three-dimensional variation at 15 standardized points of interest. RESULTS Statistically significant differences were found between the dimensional accuracy of CBCT scans taken at 10° (26.3 µm) of coronal angulation, as well as those taken at 20° (-17.3 mm) and 30° (35.2 mm) of sagittal angulations (p < 0.001, 0.016, and <0.001, respectively). The largest deviations in accuracy included an overall maximum deviation of 490 mm. CONCLUSIONS The position of the mandible with respect to the X-ray beam has a clinically insignificant effect on dimensional accuracy, up to the maximum angle of 40° assessed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Three-dimensional (3D) radiological imaging plays an important role in surgical planning used in modern dentistry. The aim of this study was to optimize imaging parameters with a special focus on voxel size and scan time. MATERIAL AND METHODS A virtual 3D master model of a macerated human skull was generated using an industrial optical noncontact white light scanner. The skull was X-rayed with cone-beam computed tomography that was applied using different settings for voxel size and acquisition time (voxel edge length of 0.3 mm, scan times 4.8 s and 8.9 s; voxel edge length of 0.2 mm, scan times 14.7 s and 26.9 s). The scan was repeated 10 times at each setting. The CBCT scans were converted into 3D virtual models (actual value), which were superimposed with the 3D master model (reference value) to detect absolute differences. RESULTS The mean value of deviation increased with increasing voxel size and decreasing scan time. For a voxel edge length of 0.3 mm, the mean values of deviation were 0.33 mm and 0.22 mm with scan times of 4.8 s and 8.9 s, respectively. For a voxel edge length of 0.2 mm, the mean deviations were 0.16 mm and 0.14 mm with scan times of 14.7 s and 26.9 s, respectively. CONCLUSIONS When using small voxel sizes, the scan time does not have a significant impact on image accuracy and therefore the scan time can be shortened. However, for larger voxel sizes, shorter scan times can lead to increased inaccuracy.
