[PMID: 38918762 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-024-04499-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was conceived to assess the postoperative stability of condylar position following fixation with miniplates and lag screws after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO). METHODS This retrospective study included a cohort of 20 patients undergoing BSSO using the Obwegeser-Dal Pont modification. The bony segments were stabilized using either miniplates with two 2.0-mm monocortical screws per segment or three 2.0-mm bicortical lag screws along the mandible's superior border. Pre- and postoperative (7-day interval) spiral computed tomography scans were conducted to assess skeletal changes across both groups. Data analysis employed Wilcoxon signed-rank and Wilcoxon rank-sum tests (α = 0.05). RESULTS No statistically significant difference was observed between the pre-and postoperative condylar position parameters (P>0.05). However, the lag screw group showed a marginal significant increase in the left condyle's angulation (preoperative: 24.83 ± 6.37 vs. postoperative: 32.5 ± 4.93; P = 0.04). Changes in condylar height, length, and width were not statistically significant before and after BSSO in either groups (P>0.05). Nor was any statistically significant difference found between the miniplates and lag screws groups regarding condylar position parameters (P>0.05). CONCLUSION The results indicated that both lag screw and miniplate fixation methods can be effectively employed in BSSO procedures without impacting condylar position parameters. Thus, either fixation method can be chosen depending on factors such as the surgeon's preference and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study is to analyze mandibular condyle position changes after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) and bimaxillary orthognathic surgery in patients operated at a single department by two surgeons in 2013-2022. Compared were groups of mandibular advancement vs setback and bimaxillary vs BSSO. METHODS Ninety-nine subjects were included. Inclusion criteria were patients who underwent one of the BSSO or bimaxillary surgery and had CT scans performed before and after surgery. Preoperative CT scans were performed 1 day before surgery and postoperative CT scans 6-12 months afterwards. Changes in mandibular condyle position were measured in axial and sagittal planes. RESULTS CT condylar position measurements indicated significant postoperative changes in AB angle bilaterally (p = < 0.001). In mandibular advancement and setback comparison, values were significantly lower in ABL angle values in the setback group (p = 0.011326) and significantly higher in FDR in the advancement group (p = 0.005795). There were no statistically significant changes found in BSSO and bimaxillary group comparison. CONCLUSION Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that orthognathic surgery does have a moderate effect on position of the condyles, especially condylar rotation in transversal axis.

Evaluating changes in the condylar head after orthognathic surgery with or without articular disc repositioning: a systematic review. Br J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2024; 62:340-348. [PMID: 38521741 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjoms.2024.01.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Failures in orthognathic surgery are associated with different factors, including those related to untreated or undiagnosed preoperative temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. This systematic review aimed to assess potential alterations in the condylar head following orthognathic surgery. A systematic search for randomised controlled trials and retrospective studies was performed. For inclusion in the review, studies had to meet the following eligibility criteria according to the PICO framework: Patients: patients with orthognathic deformity and temporomandibular dysfunction (or temporomandibular osteoarthritis); Intervention: patients submitted to orthognathic surgery concomitantly with TMJ disjunction; Control: patients undergoing only orthognathic surgery with or without presurgical data; and Outcome: changes in temporomandibular joint position and volume. Nine studies met all the inclusion criteria and were selected for qualitative analysis. The results of this review show that simultaneous articular disc repositioning and orthognathic surgery provide better results in patients with preoperatively diagnosed condylar osteoarthritic changes. In conclusion, condylar remodelling (resorption/deposition) and its extent are determined by the direction of condylar displacement during surgery. Other factors such as age are also associated with the development of condylar resorption.

Do Surgical Intervention Type and Baseline Condylar Position Affect Spatial Dimension Changes of the Temporomandibular Joint in the Surgical Correction of Skeletal Class II Deformities? J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2024:S0278-2391(24)00276-3. [PMID: 38750659 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2024.04.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2023] [Revised: 03/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND One of the key features of orthognathic surgery is altering temporomandibular joint (TMJ) condylar positions. PURPOSE This multivariate study aimed to identify surgical interventions and patient factors significantly associated with changes in TMJ spatial dimensions after the surgical correction of skeletal Class II deformities. STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, SAMPLE This is a retrospective cohort study including patients who had undergone an isolated bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSO) or a bimaxillary osteotomy (BMO) for mandibular advancement and a control sample of patients treated with the removal of odontogenic cysts in the mandibular posterior region. Excluded were those who presented with specific radiographic signs of TMJ osteoarthrosis, severe facial asymmetry, or deformity secondary to trauma. PREDICTOR/EXPOSURE/INDEPENDENT VARIABLE The primary predictors were condylar position at baseline (anterior, concentric, and posterior), time points (T0, preoperatively; T1, immediately after surgery; and T2, 1-year follow-up), and surgical intervention type (BSSO, BMO, and control group). MAIN OUTCOME VARIABLES The primary outcomes were changes in posterior spatial dimension (PSD), superior spatial dimension, and medial spatial dimension assessed by cone-beam computed tomography preoperatively, immediately after surgery, and at 1-year follow-up. COVARIATES Covariates included sex, age, and amount of mandibular advancement. ANALYSES Estimations of independent effects of primary predictors on outcome variables were made by applying generalized estimation equation models. The value of statistical significance was P < .05. RESULTS The study sample included 88 participants. The BSSO samples included 39 patients, and the BMO group included 22 patients; the control group comprised 27 subjects. The average age was 31.2 years; the majority were female (61.4%). Adjusted generalized estimation equation models yielded a significant time interaction between BSSO and spatial dimensions over time (PSD, P < .001). Key predictors of spatial dimension changes were the baseline posterior (PSD, P < .001) and the central condylar position (PSD, P < .001). CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE This controlled study, for the first time, provides scientific evidence on the effects of surgical intervention type and baseline condylar position on spatial dimension changes in the TMJ. It shows a more favorable outcome in long-term spatial dimension changes for patients treated by a BMO procedure.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to assess the correlation between temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc position and skeletal stability and identify the cephalometric measurements associated with relapse after bimaxillary surgery. METHODS The participants were 62 women with jaw deformities (124 joints) who underwent bimaxillary surgery. The TMJ disc position was classified into four types (anterior disc displacement (ADD), anterior, fully covered, and posterior) using magnetic resonance imaging, and cephalometric analysis was performed preoperatively and 1 week and 1 year postoperatively. The differences between pre- and 1-week postoperative values (T1) and 1-week and 1-year postoperative value (T2) were calculated for all cephalometric measurements. Moreover, the relationship between skeletal stability using cephalometric measurements, skeletal class, and TMJ disc position was analyzed. RESULTS The participants included 28 patients in class II and 34 in class III. There was a significant difference in T2 in SNB between class II mandibular advancement cases and class III mandibular setback cases (P = 0.0001). In T2, in ramus inclination, there was a significant difference between the ADD and posterior types (P = 0.0371). Stepwise regression analysis revealed that T2 was significantly correlated with T1 for all measurements. However, the TMJ classification was not applied to all measurements. CONCLUSION This study suggested that TMJ disc position, including ADD, could not affect skeletal stability, including the maxilla and distal segment after bimaxillary osteotomy, and short-term relapse could be related to the movement amount or angle change by surgery for all measurements.

Abstract
PURPOSE Anterior segmental osteotomy (ASO) following the surgery-first approach is a long-established treatment modality to resolve lip protrusion in patients with skeletal class II patterns. However, the indications and effectiveness of ASO still remain uncertain. The objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of ASO in Asian skeletal class II patients by evaluating the skeletal and soft tissue changes and analyzing pre-treatment variables that determine successful outcomes in occlusal as well as esthetic aspects. METHODS The lateral cephalograms of 44 skeletal class II patients who underwent ASO and orthodontic treatment for resolving lip protrusion were retrospectively collected. Hard and soft tissue variables of two groups, normalized (NG) and unnormalized (UNG) ANB after treatment were compared and analyzed. The rotational effect of the anterior segment on the hard and soft tissue was also investigated. RESULTS ASO was successful in correcting the skeletal class II relationship and lip protrusion (ΔANB - 2.3°, 4-5 mm lips retraction) in most cases. However, for patients with severely camouflaged skeletal class II incisors involving a large ANB and SNA, a large ANB still remained post-treatment. The study also found that rotation of the upper and lower anterior segments further augmented the amount of lip retraction. CONCLUSIONS ASO was found to successfully correct ANB of skeletal class II patients under the following conditions (ANB 5.3° ± 1.5°, SNB 77.3° ± 4.5°, U1 to FH 115° ± 7.5, L1 to FH 48.0° ± 4.6). However, patients with larger ANB and SNA values may require bi-maxillary surgery. In addition, ASO has limitations in correcting gummy smile in cases of extreme maxillary excess. For patients requiring a large amount of lip retraction, rotation of the anterior segment may be beneficial in conjunction with bi-maxillary surgery.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and stability of condylar positioning in patients treated with bimaxillary procedures compared with patients treated with maxillary procedures alone. All patients had undergone treatment at Odense University Hospital and were treated with inferior maxillary procedures. The primary outcome was changes in condyle position and the primary predictor variable was time: pre-operative (T0) measurements to 1-week post-operative (T1) and 1-year post-operative (T2) measurements. Condyle movement was measured using dual voxel-based alignment. Sixteen patients were included. Seven patients underwent solitary maxillary procedure and 9 patients bimaxillary procedure. Bimaxillary procedures overall showed a condyle positional change in pitch from T0 to T1 and T1 to T2 compared to maxillary procedures alone. Condylar translation was stable despite large differences in positioning. Compared to solitary maxillary procedures, bimaxillary procedures showed a statistically significant anterocranial rotation at 1-week follow-up movement (3.95° vs. -0.95°; SD 3,74 vs 1,05; P value = 0.000) and an additional statistically significant anterocranial movement at 1 year after surgery (4.89° vs 0.60°; SD 3,82 vs 0,92; P value = 0.000). In conclusion a need for greater anterocranial stability of the sagittal split osteotomy than that provided by 3 bicortically fixated screws alone might be indicated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This finite element analysis (FEA) aimed to assess the stress distribution in the mandible and fixation system with various directions of the intermaxillary fixation (IMF) using mini-implants (MIs) and elastics following mandibular advancement with a bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of nine mandibular advancement models were set according to the position of the MIs (1.6 mm in diameter, 8 mm in length) and direction of the IMF elastics (1/4 inch, 5 oz). Major and minor principal stresses in the cortical and cancellous bones, von Mises stresses in the fixation system (miniplate and monocortical screws), and bending angles of the miniplate were analysed. RESULTS Compressive and tensile stress distributions in the mandible and von Mises stress distributions in the fixation system were greater in models with a Class III IMF elastic direction and a higher IMF elastic force than in models with a Class II IMF elastic direction and a lower IMF elastic force. The bending angle of the miniplate was negligible. CONCLUSIONS Stress distributions in the bone and fixation system varied depending on the direction, amount of force, and position of IMF elastics and MIs. Conclusively, IMF elastics in the Class II direction with minimal load in the area close to the osteotomy site should be recommended.

Abstract
This study aimed to study 3-dimensional (3D) changes of hard and soft tissues of skeletal class II patients after 2-jaw surgery and genioplasty. 32 adult patients diagnosed with mandibular hypoplasia who underwent 2-jaw surgery of maxillary impaction, mandibular advancement and genioplasty were enrolled. Cone-beam computed tomography and 3D stereophotogrammetry was conducted 1 week before and 6 months after surgery. Dolphin imaging software was used to establish a 3D digitizing model and 3D measurement system. Paired t-test was performed to compare the values before and after surgery. Pearson's correlation test assessed the degree of correlations between hard and soft tissue change. The mean impaction of the maxilla was 2.600 ± 3.088 mm at A. The mean advancement of the mandible was 7.806 ± 2.647 mm at B. There was a significant upward and forward movement for most landmarks of the nose and lip, while a significant decrease in nasal tip height (lateral view), upper lip height, and upper and lower vermilion height. The nose's width was significantly increased. For maxillary, Sn, Ac-r, Ac-l, and Ls demonstrated a significant correlation with A and U1 in the anteroposterior axis. However, there were no significant correlations among them in the vertical axis. For mandibular, Li demonstrated a significant correlation with L1 in the anteroposterior axis specifically for the mandible. Notably, correlations between the landmarks of the chin's hard and soft tissues were observed across all axes. The utilization of 3-D analysis facilitated a quantitative comprehension of both hard and soft tissues, thereby furnishing valuable insights for the strategic formulation of orthognathic treatment plans targeting patients with skeletal class II conditions.

Skeletal stability after mandible bilateral sagittal split osteotomy - comparison of patient-specific implant and mini-plate fixation: A retrospective study. J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2024; 52:93-100. [PMID: 38129183 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2023.11.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 09/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of the study was to compare the stability of the virtual surgical planning (VSP) and computer-aided design accompanied by patient-specific implants (PSIs) and conventional mini-plates in mandible advancement with bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO). This retrospective study evaluates the clinical and cephalometric records of 53 patients (12 male, 41 female) treated with BSSO in Helsinki University Hospital. Subjects were divided into two groups: VSP-PSI (21 patients: 4 male and 17 female; mean age 38 years, range 25-53 years); and conventional wafer-based repositioning with mini-plate fixation (32 patients: 8 male and 24 female; mean age 39 years, range 21-56 years). The effect of the amount and direction of the advancement on the stability was also analysed individually. The standardized lateral cephalometric radiographs in three time points were analysed to compare the groups. After surgery (T2), there were no differences between groups in cephalometric variables. During follow-up (T2-T3), the cephalometric variables in both Groups A and B were stable, so there was no difference in stability between the VSP-PSI and the conventional mini-plate groups. During follow-up, the mandibles rotated clockwise or counterclockwise, relapsed towards their original direction, and the changes were statistically significant (jaw relationship; p = 0.018, soft tissue profile; p = 0.025); when the advancement of mandible was >6 mm, the increase in gonial angle compared to mandibles advanced ≤6 mm was statistically significant (p = 0.03). VSP-PSI and conventional mini-plate fixation can be considered equally stable. Large advancements with counterclockwise rotation regardless of fixation method are more susceptible to relapse. VSP-PSI alone cannot solve the relapse-related concerns in mandible osteotomy.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore whether mandible-first sequencing increases the surgical accuracy in bimaxillary orthognathic surgery for patients with skeletal class II malocclusion concomitant with the unstable condyle-fossa relation. A retrospective evaluation of 19 patients who had undergone virtually planned double-splint orthognathic surgery with different operation sequences was performed: maxilla-first (n=9) or mandible-first (n=10) surgery. The centroid position, translational, and rotational differences in the maxilla were evaluated by comparing the virtual plans with actual results. The stability was assessed by comparing the actual results with the follow-up outcomes 6 months postoperatively. The accuracy of the maxilla centroid position was improved in mandible-first sequencing surgery: mandible-first 1.87±0.94 mm versus maxilla-first 2.70±0.75 mm (P<0.05). Moreover, no significant difference was detected in the translational and orientational discrepancies between the 2 groups. Neither sequencing procedure differed in the overall stability: maxilla-first (1.48±1.13 mm) versus mandible-first (1.57±0.90 mm). This study indicated that the mandible-first surgery leads to a more accurate maxilla position than the maxilla-first surgery for patients with skeletal class II malocclusion concomitant with the unstable condyle-fossa relation.

[PMID: 38008875 PMCID: PMC10678871 DOI: 10.1186/s40902-023-00408-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/28/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mandibular condyle remodeling and displacement are post-orthognathic surgery concerns that can potentially lead to occlusal issues after bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy. This retrospective study examined the relationship between condylar volume changes and position alterations after surgery in patients with skeletal class II and III malocclusions using cone-beam CT. METHODS The study included 16 patients (6 with Class II malocclusion, 10 with Class III malocclusion) who underwent bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy at Chonnam National University Hospital. Cone-beam CT data were collected at three specific time points: before surgery, immediately after surgery, and approximately 6 months post-surgery. Mandibular movement was measured using InVivoDental 5.4.6. ITK-SNAP 3.8.0 was used to assessed condylar volume changes post-surgery. Condyle positions were evaluated in four parts with RadiAnt DICOM Viewer 4.6.9. Statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS version 23. RESULTS Considering both Class II and III malocclusion, a 2.91% volume reduction was noted immediately and at 6 months after surgery. Both Class II and III cases demonstrated a decrease in superior joint space by -0.59 mm and medial joint space by -1.09 mm. No significant correlation was found between this process and condylar volume change. CONCLUSIONS The mandibular condyle volume decreased, and superior-medial movement of the condyle was detected in patients with Class II and III malocclusion immediately and at 6 months after surgery with no volume-position correlation.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to retrospectively investigate the risk factors and their association on bimaxillary osteotomies to be able to improve patient selection and bimaxillary osteotomy planning. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients treated with a bimaxillary osteotomy were included in the study. The complications were collected retrospectively from the patient data records. The effects of certain predictor variables on complication rates were also studied. RESULTS Sixty-one patients (48.0%) suffered from peri- or postoperative complications, or both. Twenty-five various perioperative complications were reported on 25 patients (19.6%) and 63 postoperative complications on 46 patients (36.2%). Ten patients (7.8%) suffered from both perioperative and postoperative complications. The effect of various predictor variables (sex, age, general health, type of malocclusion, surgery planning, use of bone grafts, and type of maxillary or mandibular movement) on complications was investigated, but we could not find any single factor to affect significantly on complication rate. CONCLUSION Both perioperative and postoperative complications are common in bimaxillary surgery, which must be noted in patient preoperative information. However, life-threatening complications are rare. Patient profile, bone grafting, type of osteosynthesis, or segmentation of the maxilla do not seem to affect the complication risk.

Abstract
Objectives Dentofacial deformity following juvenile idiopathic arthritis with temporomandibular joint involvement is associated with functional, aesthetic, and psychosocial impairment. Surgical treatment may involve combinations of orthognathic surgery. The aims of this retrospective study were to assess orofacial symptoms, functional and aesthetic status, and stability after orthognathic surgery. Material and Methods Nineteen patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and dentofacial deformities were included. All patients were treated with combinations of bilateral sagittal split osteotomy, Le Fort I and/or genioplasty, between September 10, 2007 and October 17, 2017. Analysis of patient symptoms and clinical registrations, and frontal/lateral cephalograms was performed pre- and postoperative and long-term (mean: 3.8 and 2.6 years, respectively). Results Patients experienced no changes in orofacial symptoms or TMJ function, and stable normalisation of horizontal and vertical incisal relations at long-term (horizontal overbite; vertical overbite: P < 0.05). Mandibular lengthening was achieved postoperatively (from mean 79.7 to 87.2 mm; P = 0.004) and was stable. Sella-nasion to A point (SNA) and sella-nasion to B point (SNB) angles increased postoperatively (SNA, mean 79.9° to 82.8°; P = 0.022 and SNB, mean 73.9° to 77.8°; P = 0.003), however, largely reverted to preoperative status at long-term. Conclusions Orthognathic surgery normalized incisal relations while providing stable mandibular lengthening without long-term deterioration of temporomandibular joint function or orofacial symptoms. No long-term effect on jaw advancements was observed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study is intended to compare the skeleton stability of bioabsorbable and titanium systems after orthognathic surgery in mandibular prognathism patients. STUDY DESIGN A Retrospective study of 28 mandibular prognathism patients who underwent BSSRO setback surgery at Chulalongkorn University. Both titanium and the bioabsorbable group would take lateral cephalometrics immediately postoperative in 1-week(T0), 3(T1), 6(T2), and 12(T3) months. These radiographs were analyzed with Dolphin imaging programTM. The vertical, horizontal, and angular indices were measured. To compare immediately postoperative and follow-up periods within the group, the Friedman difference was used, and the Man-Whitney U test was used between the two groups. RESULT The measurements within the group presented no statistically significant differences. But this study showed that at T0-T1, there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in the mean of Me in horizontal linear measurement. T0-T2 found differences between Me in both horizontal and vertical linear measurements, and the difference between ANB. The differences between B-point, Pog, and Me in vertical linear measurements at T0-T3 were also reported. CONCLUSION The significant difference values were within the normal range which indicated that using the bioabsorbable system could be well maintained as well as the titanium system. STATEMENT OF CLINICAL RELEVANCE The second operation for removing titanium plate and screw after conventional orthognathic surgery may leads patient discomforts. While a resorbable system might be the role change if the stability is place on the same level.

Abstract
Maxillofacial skeletal surgery often involves the use of patient-specific implants. However, errors in obtaining patient data and designing and manufacturing patient-specific plates and guides can occur even with accurate virtual surgery. To address these errors, bespoke Snowman plates were designed to allow movement of the mandible. This study aimed to compare the stability of bespoke four-hole miniplates with that of a bespoke Snowman plate for bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO), and to present a method to investigate joint cavity changes, as well as superimpose virtual and actual surgical images of the mandible. This retrospective study included 22 patients who met the inclusion criteria and underwent orthognathic surgery at a university hospital between 2015 and 2018. Two groups were formed on the basis of the plates used: a control group with four-hole bespoke plates and a study group with bespoke Snowman plates. Stability was assessed by measuring the condyle-fossa space and superimposing three-dimensional virtual surgery images on postoperative cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans. No significant differences were observed in the condyle-fossa space preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively between the control and study groups. Superimposing virtual surgery and CBCT scans revealed minimal differences in the landmark points, with no variation between groups or timepoints. The use of bespoke Snowman plates for stabilizing the mandible following SSRO exhibited clinical stability and reliability similar to those with bespoke four-hole plates. Additionally, a novel method was introduced to evaluate skeletal stability by separately analyzing the condyle-fossa gap changes and assessing the mandibular position.

Abstract
The treatment of dentofacial deformities generally includes orthognathic surgery in which mandibular condyle changes following surgery are a common cause of relapse. This study investigated the changes in the mandibular condyle and related muscles to identify the factors that affected the changes in the mandibular condyle after orthognathic surgery in skeletal class II patients. This research studied 60 joints in 30 patients with skeletal class II dentofacial deformities who received surgical orthodontic treatment, including bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy, and underwent computed tomography before and after orthodontic treatment. The mandibular condyle, masseter, and medial pterygoid muscles were reconstructed and measured in 3D. Condylar positional and morphology changes, masseter and medial pterygoid muscle volume, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain, and distal segment movement were analyzed. The study observed that both the masseter and medial pterygoid muscle volumes decreased with statistical significance. The changes in the horizontal direction were positively correlated with the amount of movement. The findings indicated that mandibular condyle changes were significantly affected by the movement of the distal segment, the medial pterygoid muscle volume, and the direction of the distal segment, which influenced the treatment's long-term stability after orthognathic surgery.

Abstract
The chin is a crucial component of facial aesthetics, and 20% of craniofacial problems require repair of the chin size, shape, and position. Genioplasty is used to treat irregularities in all three planes of the chin. Specific hard and soft tissue relapses following various genioplasty techniques have not been adequately studied in the literature to date. The purpose of this scoping review was to investigate the stability of hard and soft tissue changes achieved by different genioplasty procedures, six months after the procedure. A literature search was performed on PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Wiley Online, Scopus, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and Cochrane databases from January 1, 2011 to October 31, 2022. Prospective and retrospective cohorts, case-control studies, observational studies, and randomized control trials, with at least 10 patients, which were written in English and evaluated the stability of different genioplasty procedures, with a follow-up period of at least six months were included. The manual and electronic search yielded 523 articles, and after complete screening, seven articles were selected (five with advancement genioplasty and two with reduction genioplasty) that met the eligibility criteria for review. The patients undergoing reduction genioplasty had a mean age of 24.15 years, compared to 20.5 years for augmentation genioplasty. The average follow-up period was 18.64 months for augmentation genioplasty and 10.5 months for reduction genioplasty technique. The relapse was assessed at pogonion, and it was noted that the average surgical advancement at hard tissue pogonion was 7.04 mm with a relapse of 0.69 mm after six months post-treatment. The average vertical movement of the hard tissue pogonion was 1.8 mm with a relapse of 0.74 mm. The average reduction at hard tissue pogonion was 3.2 mm in the vertical direction with a relapse of 0.2 mm and 0.8 mm reduction in soft tissue pogonion with a relapse of 0.3 mm. The soft to hard tissue ratio mentioned in the different studies ranged from 0.89 to 0.97. Both reduction and augmentation genioplasty are stable and reliable for altering the chin position for aesthetic purposes. The recommended mode of fixation is rigid fixation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To model the effect of isolated bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) on changes in posterior (PSD), superior (SSD), and medial space dimensions (MSD) of the temporomandibular joint. METHODS Using a retrospective cohort study design, pre- and postoperative (immediately after surgery; 1 year follow-up) cone-beam computed tomography measurements of 36 patients who had undergone BSSO for mandibular advancement were compared with a control group of 25 subjects from whom a mandibular odontogenic cyst was removed under general anesthesia. Generalized estimation equation (GEE) models were used to examine the independent effects of study group, preoperative condylar position, and time points on PSD, SSD, and MSD adjusting for covariates (age, sex, and mandibular advancement). RESULTS No significant differences were found regarding changes in PSD (p = 0.144), SSD (p = 0.607), or MSD (p = 0.565) between the BSSO and control groups. However, the preoperative posterior condylar position showed significant effects on PSD (p < 0.001) and MSD (p = 0.043), while the preoperative central condylar position demonstrated a significant effect on PSD (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The data suggest that preoperative posterior condylar position is a significant effect modifier of PSD and MSD over time in this cohort.

Abstract
This report describes the treatment of severe skeletal Class II malocclusion in a young woman with a gummy smile and pronounced lower anterior facial height. Overjet and overbite were +12.0 mm and -1.0 mm, respectively. Cephalometric analysis revealed inferior positioning of the maxilla and severe mandibular retrusion with clockwise rotation. Both the upper and lower anterior teeth showed labial inclination. Based on a diagnosis of a skeletal Class II high angle with mandibular retrusion and a gummy smile, double-jaw orthognathic surgeries for upper and lower premolar extraction were chosen to gain ideal occlusion and an improvement in the esthetic facial profile. Le Fort I osteotomy was performed to move the anterior and posterior teeth upward by 4.0 mm and achieve mandibular counterclockwise rotation. Short lingual sagittal split ramus osteotomy was performed to move the mandible forward by 3.0 mm. As a result, normal overjet and overbite were achieved together with a straight profile and a good smile. After surgery, electromyographic evaluation of anterior temporal muscle activity showed an improvement in the percentage overlapping coefficient value (a symmetric index of bilateral muscle activity) from 28.1% to 63.2% compared to at pre-treatment. The pattern of jaw movement also showed an improvement. These results suggest that orthognathic surgery in skeletal Class II cases can improve not only malocclusion and the skeletal relationship of the jaws, but also masticatory function and jaw movement.

Abstract
Background The provision of sufficient stability after maxillofacial surgery is essential for the reduction of complications and disease recurrence. The stabilization of osteotomized pieces results in rapid restoration of normal masticatory function, reduction of skeletal relapse, and uneventful healing at the osteotomy site. We aimed to compare qualitatively stress distribution patterns over a virtual mandible model after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) bridged with three different intraoral fixation techniques. Methods This study was conducted in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department of Mashhad School of Dentistry, Mashhad, Iran, from March 2021-March 2022. The mandible computed tomography scan of a healthy adult was used to generate a 3D model; thereafter, BSSO with a 3mm setback was simulated. The three following fixation techniques were applied to the model: 1) two bicortical screws, 2) three bicortical screws, and 3) a miniplate. The bilateral second premolars and first molars were placed under mechanical loads of 75, 135, and 600N in order to simulate symmetric occlusal forces. Finite element analysis (FEA) was carried out in Ansys software, and the mechanical strain, stress, and displacement calculations were recorded. Results The FEA contours revealed that stress was mainly concentrated in the fixation units. Although bicortical screws presented better rigidity than miniplates, they were associated with higher stress and displacement readings. Conclusion Miniplate fixation demonstrated the most favorable biomechanical performance, followed by fixation with two and three bicortical screws, respectively. Intraoral fixation with miniplates in combination with monocortical screws can serve as an appropriate fixation arrangement and treatment option for skeletal stabilization after BSSO setback surgery.

Ann Biomed Eng 2022; 51:987-1001.

Abstract
Hemifacial microsomia (HFM), one of the most common congenital facial anomalies, was usually treated with the bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) procedure to correct the asymmetric appearance and malocclusion of the mandible. However, the frequent post-operative relapse incidents would lead to the restoration of the mandibular segment to its preoperative position and failure of the BSSO procedure. In this study, a customized asymmetric fixed plate (CAF plate) was developed to resist relapse due to hemifacial microsomia occlusal forces and the different muscular traction forces on both sides of the mandible. For the actual HFM case in this study, the reconstructed mandibular segmental bone model was fixed using BSSO with a rectangular plate (the original CAF plate appearance) in the topology optimization analysis. With the topology optimization technique, the CAF plate was designed with a lightweight profile and excellent structural strength in consideration of the HFM asymmetrical muscle traction and occlusal force. Using biomechanical simulations, the von-Mises stress and CAF plate mandibular segment displacement and the miniplate were compared to evaluate which had superior relapse resistance. In the in-vitro biomechanical test, a fatigue force of 250,000 cycles and a constant muscle traction force were applied to the HFM mandibular model, which was fixed with the CAF plate fabricated using metal 3D printing (selective laser melting, SLM) to obtain the mandibular segment displacement as a relapse assessment. The topology optimization analysis showed that the CAF plate has the best characteristics, light weight and structural strength with 30% volume retention. The biomechanical analysis showed that the maximum von Mises stress of the mini-plate was 2.71 times higher than that of the CAF plate. The relapse displacement of the mandibular segment fixed with the mini-plate was 1.62 times higher than that fixed with the CAF plate. The CAF plate ability to resist relapse was confirmed by the biomechanical testing results so that only 0.29 mm of recurrence displacement was observed in the mandibular segment. The results indicated that the CAF plate structural strength and resistance to relapse was significantly better than that of the mini-plate. This study developed a customized asymmetric fixation plate for hemifacial microsomia, integrating topology optimization, metal 3D printing, and in vitro biomechanical testing to resist occlusal forces and differential muscle traction on both sides of the mandible to reduce relapse and improve fixation stability.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate fixation resistance in mandibular sagittal split ramus osteotomy in standardized polyurethane hemimandibles with two types of advancement (6 and 12 mm), with or without mandibular plane rotation, using a 2.0-mm plate/screw system. METHODS Seven groups were evaluated using a vertical compressive load in the first molar region, and the applied force in Newtons was recorded in 1 mm, 5 mm, and 10 mm displacements, as well as the maximum force. RESULTS There was a statistical intergroup difference and it was observed that increasing the advancement decreased fixation resistance with a single plate, and inserting an additional plate significantly increased osteosynthesis resistance. CONCLUSION In the 12 mm advancements, clockwise rotation proved to be more resistant when fixed with only one plate. By contrast, counterclockwise rotation was significantly more resistant in stabilizing the mandibular sagittal ramus osteotomy when two plates were used.

Abstract
Aim To assess the efficacy of sagittal split plate with adjustable slider for intra-operative correction of condylar sag after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy. Subjects and Methods Patients reporting for correction of mandibular skeletal deformities for correction with sagittal split osteotomy (SSRO) were enrolled in the study. Simple randomization method was followed for patient allocation. Patients in group A had undergone fixation sagittal split fix plates; in group B, miniplate fixation with monocortical screws was used. Occlusion was the key indicator of condylar sage that was checked at different time frames (intra-operatively T0, immediate T1, 6 months postoperatively T2). Preoperative, immediate and late postoperative (at 6 months and 1-year interval) and lateral cephalometric assessment was used to assess their stability. Results Thirty-three patients were enrolled and 20 patients were included in the study. One patient of group A presented with central condylar sag that was identified intra-operatively and addressed immediately. All the patients in group B presented with type 2 peripheral condylar sag that was addressed by inter-maxillary elastics and orthodontics. Two patients in group A presented with mild degree of relapse at 6 months, which was comparable to the control group indicating good stability. Conclusion Sagittal split plates appear to be efficacious for intra-operative identification and correction of condylar sag is associated with SSRO.

Abstract
Skeletal class III malocclusion with severe skeletal disharmonies and arch discrepancies is usually treated via the conventional orthodontic-surgical approach. However, when associated with tooth impaction and periodontal risks, the treatment is more challenging and complex. The esthetic, occlusal, and periodontal stability of the treatment outcome is more difficult to obtain. The 16-year-old female patient in this case was diagnosed with dental and skeletal Class III malocclusion, bilateral impacted maxillary canines, and scalloped thin gingiva. The multidisciplinary management included a segmental arch technique, extracting two premolars, a subepithelial connective tissue graft surgery, and orthognathic surgery. The esthetic facial profile, pleasant smile, appropriate occlusion, and functional treatment results were obtained and maintained in 8-year follow-up.

Abstract
The aim of this study was the development of a statistical model for reliable prediction of Posterior Airway Space (PAS) changes in lateral cephalograms (LCR) of patients after bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. The LCRs of patients who underwent bimaxillary orthognathic surgery were retrospectively analyzed. The anteroposterior dimension of the PAS was measured at three levels in the pre-operative and postoperative LCR: On the nasopharyngeal (SPAS), oropharyngeal (MAS), and hypopharyngeal level (IAS). The data of 139 patients were collected. The following changes of the PAS were measured: in class II patients SPAS: 0.291 mm (SD = 2.570 mm); MAS: 2.444 mm (SD = 2.986 mm); IAS: 0.750 mm (SD = 3.017 mm); in class III patients SPAS: 1.377 mm (SD 3.212 mm); MAS: 0.962 (SD: = 3.135 mm); IAS: 0.370 mm (SD = 3.468 mm). Linear regression analysis showed for class II patients, a significant influence of mandibular movement on MAS (p = 0.049) and a significant effect of maxillary and mandibular movements on SPAS (p = 0.001) and MAS (p = 0.022) in class III patients. The other jaw displacements had no significant impact on the investigated PAS levels. While the presented method does not permit exact prediction of the dimension of the PAS, it is still an easily accessible method of orientation for the surgeon. The surgeon can initiate three-dimensional examinations to provide exact three-dimensional prediction based on this calculation.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Systematic mapping review AIM AND SCOPE: The objective of this mapping review was to identify, describe, and organize clinical research currently available from systematic reviews and primary studies regarding co-interventions and different surgical modalities used in orthognathic surgery (OS) and their outcomes. METHODS Systematic reviews (SRs), randomized controlled trials, and observational studies that evaluated perioperative OS co-interventions and surgical modalities were identified in an exhaustive search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, Epistemonikos, Lilacs, Web of Science, and CENTRAL. Grey literature was also screened. RESULTS Included were 35 SRs and 253 primary studies, 103 from SRs, and another 150 identified in our search. Overall, SR quality was rated as critically low, with only two SRs rated as of high quality. 19 questions on population, interventions, comparisons, and outcomes (PICO) extracted from the SRs focused on osteosynthesis methods, surgical cutting devices, and use of antibiotics, corticosteroids, and induced hypotension. Also identified were 15 research gaps. Evidence bubble maps were created to graphically depict the available evidence. CONCLUSION Future high-quality research, both primary and secondary, is needed to address the knowledge gaps identified in this systematic mapping review.

Abstract
Background This study aims to investigate the accuracy of a three-dimensional (3D) face reconstruction method based on conventional clinical two-dimensional (2D) photos. Methods Twenty-three patients were included, and Character Creator v3.2 software with the Headshot v1.0 plugin was used for 3D face model reconstruction. Various facial landmarks were finely adjusted manually to refine the models. After preprocessing and repositioning, 3D deviation analysis was performed. The accuracy of the landmarks in different dimensions was determined, and twelve facial soft tissue measurements were compared to validate the clinical potential of the method. Result The reconstructed 3D face models showed good facial morphology with fine texture. The average root mean square errors between face scan models and reconstructed models at perioral area (1.26 ± 0.24 mm, 95%CI: 1.15–1.37 mm) were significantly smaller than the entire facial area (1.77 ± 0.23 mm, 95%CI:1.67–1.88 mm), P < 0.01. The deviation of menton of soft tissue was significantly larger than pronasale (P < 0.01). The deviations of all landmarks in the Y-direction were significantly larger than those in the other 2 dimensions (Y > Z > X, P < 0.01). A significant difference (P < 0.05) of approximately 1.5 mm was found for facial height. Significant differences (P < 0.05) were also identified in the remaining 6 soft tissue measurements, with average deviations no greater than 0.5 mm (linear measurement) or 1.2° (angular measurements). Conclusion A 3D face modeling method based on 2D face photos was revealed and validated. The reconstruction accuracy of this method is clinically acceptable for orthodontic measurement purposes, but narrow clinical indications and labor-intensive operations remain problems.

Abstract
Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) mandibular advancement can cause mandibular lower border notching (MLBN). The objective of this study was to calculate the incidence of MLBN and identify risk factors. This single-centre, retrospective study was performed between January 2018 and November 2020, in the Maxillofacial Surgery Department, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Caen. Patients who underwent BSSO advancement and had cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans obtained preoperatively, immediately postoperative (within 1 week), and late postoperative (≥1 year) were included. Measurements were made on the CBCT images. A total of 113 patients (226 operated sides) were enrolled. Mean age at the time of surgery was 17 years; 66.4% of patients were female and 33.6% were male. MLBN was observed on 35 operated sides (15.5% of sides). Advanced age (P = 0.002) and the degree of mandibular advancement (P = 0.008) were determined to be risk factors for developing MLBN. Sex, the operated side, third molar removal, and genioplasty were not associated with an increased occurrence of MLBN. Older patient age at the time of surgery and the requirement for a large advancement should be taken into consideration by the surgeon in order to reduce the risk of MLBN by using a modified BSSO procedure or bone grafting.

[PMID: 36274884 PMCID: PMC9475004 DOI: 10.1007/s12663-021-01539-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2021] [Accepted: 02/23/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Aims The current manuscript explores the viability of reverse sagittal split osteotomy technique for correction of ankylotic cases with post gap arthroplasty mandibular retrognathia to achieve socially acceptable esthetic results. Method Reverse sagittal split osteotomy which was introduced by Collins et al in 1983 was performed with certain modifications on two cases to correct mandibular hypoplasia in post gap arthroplasty cases. The paper also highlights intraoral as well as extraoral approach for performing the osteotomy along with better management of bad split under direct vision. Result It was observed that the reverse sagittal split technique for advancement of mandible in cases of tmj ankylosis-induced dentofacial deformity provided better proximal control, reduced chances of bad split, greater range of advancement (11-14 mm) with esthetically acceptable results. The osteotomy cuts on lateral surface of mandible make the procedure effectively easier and quicker with better control over proximal segment and management under direct vision. Conclusion When Distraction Osteogenesis and conventional orthognathic is not a choice in management of dentofacial deformity of post-release ankylosis cases due to the poor proximal control and concern over bad split, reverse sagittal split can be an appropriate choice to manage these deformities without any donor site morbidity.

J Maxillofac Oral Surg 2022; 21:779-784. [PMID: 36274902 PMCID: PMC9474976 DOI: 10.1007/s12663-021-01581-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2020] [Accepted: 04/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective The internal fixation has been purpose of study for many years, but there is still no consensus on the best method of fixation in relation to resistance for bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSO) using plates. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess five different methods of osteosynthesis using resorbable and non-resorbable plates and screws in simulated sagittal split osteotomy (SSO) of the mandibular ramus. Materials and Methods SSO was performed in 25 polyurethane synthetic mandibular replicas. The distal segments were moved forward 5 mm, and the specimens were grouped according to the fixation method: Inion resorbable plate, KLS resorbable plate, standard four-hole titanium miniplate (Medartis), two standard four-hole titanium miniplates (Medartis) and an adjustable titanium miniplate (Slider/Medartis). Mechanical evaluation was performed by applying compression loads to first molar using an Instron universal testing machine up to a 5 mm displacement of the segments. Resistance forces were obtained in Newtons (N), and statistical analysis was performed using the software R v. 3.5 with significance level of 0.05. Linear mixed models were used to compare the force required to move each type of plate. Results The results showed that the resistance of SSO was better accomplished using two titanium miniplates and KLS resorbable plate showed the least resistance. However, both titanium and resorbable plates behaved similarly in small displacements, which are most commonly observed in BSSO postoperative time. Conclusion It can be concluded that both resorbable and non-resorbable systems might offer suitable mechanical resistance in the procedures where there are no mechanical postoperative complications.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate postoperative relapse after the surgical correction of skeletal Class III deformities of various facial patterns as a guide to surgical planning. A retrospective cohort study of 90 consecutive patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion who underwent bimaxillary surgery was performed. The surgical outcomes and postoperative stability were compared. The primary predictor variable was vertical facial type, which was classified into three groups according to the Frankfort mandibular plane angle (FMA). The primary outcome of angular and linear measurements was obtained using serial cone beam computed tomography scans obtained at time points of preoperative, 1 week after surgery, and orthodontic debonding. No significant difference in skeletal relapse was observed in patients with the different vertical facial types. The mandible displayed a forward and upward relapse in all three groups postoperatively. The patients with a low FMA exhibited a more consistent mandibular relapse pattern than those with a normal or high FMA. These findings suggest that bimaxillary surgery is clinically stable for mandibular prognathism regardless of the vertical facial pattern. However, 1-1.5 mm of overcorrection in the mandible setback should be considered in patients with a low FMA, because of the greater facial depth and consistent forward and upward mandibular relapse pattern.

Abstract
Background The stability of the results remains a significant concern in orthognathic surgeries. This study aimed to assess the amount of relapse following mandibular advancement with/without maxillomandibular fixation (MMF). Materials and methods A single-blind clinical trial was conducted on patients with mandibular retrognathism who underwent BSSO for mandibular advancement and Lefort I maxillary superior repositioning. Patients were randomly divided into two groups of treatment (MMF) and control (no MMF). In the treatment group, MMF was performed for 2 weeks; meanwhile, MMF was not performed in the control group, and only guiding elastics were applied postoperatively. Lateral cephalograms were obtained preoperatively (T1), immediately after surgery (T2), and at 1 year postoperatively (T3). The distance from points A and B to the X and Y plane were measured to identify the amount of vertical and horizontal relapse in 1 year as a primary outcome. An independent t-test was applied in order to find differences in outcomes between the control and treatment groups. Results Fifty-eight patients were evaluated in two groups (28 patients in the MMF group and 30 in the no-MMF group). The magnitude of mandibular advancement following BSSO was 7.68±1.39 mm and 7.53±1.28, respectively, without significant difference among the groups (p= 0.68). The mean sagittal and vertical changes (relapse) at point B were significantly different between the two groups at 1-year follow-up after the osteotomy (p=0.001 and p=0.05, respectively). Conclusion According to the results of this study, patients with short-term MMF following BSSO for mandibular advancement benefit from significantly greater skeletal stability in the sagittal and vertical dimensions.

Changes and Remodeling of Intersegmental Interferences following Bilateral Sagittal Split Ramus Osteotomy in Patients with Mandibular Prognathism. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022.

Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to measure the amount of change in the mandibular angle, intergonial width, and ramus angulation due to intersegmental interference and changes in condyle position after mandibular bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) in patients with mandibular prognathism and to evaluate the correlation between them. Materials and Methods: A total of 32 patients who underwent mandibular setback using the BSSRO of the mandible to manage skeletal prognathism during the years 2018 to 2020 at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Pusan National University were followed both clinically and with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for at least one year. Those who were also treated with genioplasty or other orthognathic surgery were excluded from the study. The mandibular angle (gonial angle: Ar–Go–Me), intergonial width (Go–Go), and total angle (sum of left and right proximal segmental angle) were recorded. Changes in the ramus were compared and analyzed before surgery (T1), immediately after surgery (T2), and one year following surgery (T3). Results: The mandibular angle increased by an average of 0.14 degrees immediately after surgery (T2–T1) and increased by 0.97 degrees at 12 months postoperatively (T3–T2). No correlation was observed with the amount of change in each group relative to the amount of mandibular setback. The mandibular width decreased by 0.01 mm on average immediately after surgery (T2–T1), and by 4.2 mm on average at 12 months after surgery (T3–T2). The angle of the mesial fragment of the mandible increased by 1.04 degrees immediately after surgery (T2–T1), compared to the preoperative state. It decreased by 0.86 degrees at 12 months postoperatively (T3–T2). Conclusion: The increase in the mandibular angle from immediately after surgery to 12 months after BSSRO reflects the counterclockwise rotational tendency to prevent opening restriction when intentionally selecting the condylar position. The decrease in the intergonial width immediately after surgery is thought to be due to the effect of internal trimming to minimize the bone interference between the outer surface of the distal bone fragment and the inner surface of the mesial fragment, and the decrease 1 year after surgery can be considered to be due to bone remodeling. Interosseous interference during mandibular setback osteotomy does not necessarily cause an increase in the width of the mandibular angle after surgery.

Abstract
Mandibular prognathism combined with a retrognathic maxilla is a skeletal discrepancy that is difficult to correct. We report a case of a 25-year-old Saudi male patient with skeletal class-III malocclusion due to severe prognathic mandible who was referred to an orthodontist at Prince Sultan Military Medical City. Complete clinical examination, radiographic assessment, and study models revealed class-III malocclusion due to anteroposterior deficiency of the maxilla and severe prognathic mandible. Orthognathic surgery was performed 18 months after the presurgical orthodontic phase. A 10-mm LeFort I advancement of the maxillary arch, with impaction of 3 mm, was performed with a bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) of 11 mm. Stable occlusion and superior aesthetics were observed at the 1-year follow-up. Surgical–orthodontic treatment endows an adult patient with a class-III malocclusion or mandibular prognathism with a stable occlusion and superior aesthetics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate volumetric and circumferential pharyngeal airway space (PAS) changes and stability over time as evaluated with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) before and after orthognathic surgery 2 years postoperatively. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred twenty-eight patients underwent bimaxillary orthognathic surgery at the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery of University Hospitals, Leuven, Belgium, were recruited prospectively. Patients were divided into 4 groups based on the amount of mandibular advancement in 5 mm increments (< 0 mm, 0-5 mm, 5-10 mm, or > 10 mm). CBCT data was acquired preoperatively and 1-6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years postoperatively. Patients with a history of maxillofacial trauma or surgery, obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome, or craniofacial anomalies were excluded. Nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal, and hypopharyngeal PAS volumes and constriction surface areas (mCSA) were measured and compared between each time point with a paired t-test. RESULTS The largest significant increase in oropharyngeal volume and mCSA were observed in the 5-10 mm (+ 13.3-21.7%, + 51.3-83.0%)) and > 10 mm (+ 23.3-44.6%, + 92.3-130.0%) mandibular advancement groups. This increase only remained stable 2 years postoperatively in the > 10 mm group. In other mandibular advancement groups, short-term oropharyngeal volume and mCSA increases were noticed, which returned to baseline levels 6 months to 1 year postoperatively. CONCLUSION Bimaxillary advancement osteotomy significantly increases oropharyngeal volume and mCSA, which remains stable between 6 months to 1 year postoperatively. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Long-term stable volumetric and mCSA enlargements were found with > 10 mm mandibular advancements over a period of 2 years. Return towards baseline levels was observed in the other mandibular advancement groups.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to quantify the postoperative condylar remodeling after Le Fort I surgery. Patients treated with a Le Fort I osteotomy were investigated. CBCT scans were acquired preoperatively, one week and one year postoperatively. A preoperative 3D cephalometric analysis was performed on the preoperative CBCT. Surgical movements were quantified using a voxel-registration based method (OrthoGnaticAnalyser). After rendering of the condyles from the CBCT, a volumetric analysis was performed. The correlation between the surgical movement of the maxilla and the postoperative condylar volume changes was determined with analysis of variance. RESULTS: A total of 45 subjects were included in this study. 47 of 90 condyles (52%) showed a mean volume reduction of 93 mm3 (4.9 volume-%) postoperatively. The maxilla was impacted in 12 patients (2.44 ± 2.49 mm) and extruded in 33 patients (1.78 ± 1.29 mm). The maxillary impaction group showed a volume reduction of 50 ± 122 mm3 and the extrusion group showed a mean volume gain of 21 ± 139 mm3 (p = 0.028). CONCLUSION: Clinicians should be aware of potential condylar remodeling following solitary Le Fort I osteotomies, particularly in female patients with maxillary impaction.

Abstract
ABSTRACT In this retrospective analysis, we examined temporomandibular joint space volume and condyle position in 10 patients undergoing bilateral sagittal split mandibular ramus osteotomy plus Le Fort I osteotomy to correct mandibular asymmetry. Cone beam computed tomography was used to map temporomandibular joint prior to (T0), immediately after (T1), and at 1 year after surgery (T2). In the deviated side, we detected significant lateral shift of the condyle in 5 patients at T1, and the shift disappeared at T2. In the non-deviated side, we detected significant medial shift of the condyle in all 10 patients at T1; the shift continued in 9 patients at T2. Temporomandibular joint space volume increased significantly at T1 and returned to presurgical volume at T2. In conclusion, there is significant shift in position of condyle in majority of the patients after bilateral sagittal split mandibular ramus osteotomy. The most consistent and persisting change was medial shift on the nondeviated side.

Abstract
PURPOSE To retrospectively evaluate skeletal stability after Le Fort I maxillary impaction surgery and mandibular autorotation without bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) in high-angle class II patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seven female high-angle class II patients who underwent maxillary impaction surgery and mandibular autorotation without bilateral sagittal split osteotomy were included in this study. Surgical changes and relapse were measured on lateral cephalograms taken preoperatively and at 1 month, 6 months and 1 year postoperatively. RESULTS The horizontal movement of the maxilla at point A was 5.8 ± 3.3 mm backward, and the upward movement at the posterior nasal spine was 3.3 ± 1.4 mm. The mean horizontal change at point A during the 1-year follow-up period was 0.1 ± 0.2 mm, and the vertical change at posterior nasal spine was 0.2 ± 1.3 mm, which were not statistically significant. The horizontal surgical change at point B was 4.0 ± 1.8 mm forward and the vertical surgical change at point B was 4.7 ± 1.8 mm upward. Postoperative relapse was 10.9% and 13.7% in the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Le Fort I maxillary impaction surgery with mandibular autorotation may be 1 of the suitable procedures for high-angle class II patients.

Abstract
When using the bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) technique, rigid internal fixation (RIF) remains the standard method to accurately fix the distal and proximal osteotomy fragments. A concern with the use of RIF, especially with bicortical screws, is the increased risk of condylar torque and its functional consequences. This technical note introduces a new method for preventing torque of the mandibular condyles after BSSO, using a sagittal split space maintainer.

Effect of Bone Buttressing at the Vertical Osteotomy Site on Postoperative Stability After Mandibular Setback Surgery. J Craniofac Surg 2021; 32:e682-e686. [PMID: 34260469 DOI: 10.1097/scs.0000000000007974] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the effect of bone buttressing at the vertical osteotomy site on postoperative stability after mandibular setback surgery and determine factors contributing to postoperative relapse. This retrospective study was conducted on patients who received mandibular setback surgery using bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy. Patients were divided into two groups: group I, intimate bony contact, and group II, bony gap of 2 mm or more. Using lateral cephalograms taken before surgery, 1 week after surgery, and 6 months after surgery, surgical changes, and postoperative relapse were compared between 2 groups. To assess associations between postoperative relapse and other variables, Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were performed. Twenty-eight patients were evaluated (17 in group I and 11 in group II). Mean relapse was greater in group II (1.8 mm) than in group I (1.2 mm), although there were no significant differences between 2 groups (P = 0.203). Postoperative relapse was significantly associated with intraoperative clockwise rotation of the proximal segment (P < 0.001) and the amount of mandibular setback (P = 0.038). Bony gap was only correlated with postoperative counterclockwise rotation of the proximal segment (P = 0.014). In the regression analysis, intraoperative clockwise rotation of the proximal segment significantly predicted postoperative relapse (P < 0.001, R2 = 0.388). The absence of bone buttressing at the vertical osteotomy site may not significantly affect postoperative stability after mandibular setback surgery, and it is important to minimize intraoperative clockwise rotation of the proximal segment for better postoperative stability.

The role of muscular traction in the occurrence of skeletal relapse after advancement bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO): A systematic review. Orthod Craniofac Res 2021; 25:1-13. [PMID: 33938136 PMCID: PMC9292715 DOI: 10.1111/ocr.12488] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2021] [Revised: 04/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this systematic review was (i) to determine the role of muscular traction in the occurrence of skeletal relapse after advancement BSSO and (ii) to investigate the effect of advancement BSSO on the perimandibular muscles. This systematic review reports in accordance with the recommendations proposed by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses (PRISMA) statement. Electronic database searches were performed in the databases MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Library. Inclusion criteria were as follows: assessment of relapse after advancement BSSO; assessment of morphological and functional change of the muscles after advancement BSSO; and clinical studies on human subjects. Exclusion criteria were as follows: surgery other than advancement BSSO; studies in which muscle activity/traction was not investigated; and case reports with a sample of five cases or fewer, review articles, meta‐analyses, letters, congress abstracts or commentaries. Of the initial 1006 unique articles, 11 studies were finally included. In four studies, an intervention involving the musculature was performed with subsequent assessment of skeletal relapse. The changes in the morphological and functional properties of the muscles after BSSO were studied in seven studies. The findings of this review demonstrate that the perimandibular musculature plays a role in skeletal relapse after advancement BSSO and may serve as a target for preventive strategies to reduce this complication. However, further research is necessary to (i) develop a better understanding of the role of each muscle group, (ii) to develop new therapeutic strategies and (iii) to define criteria that allow identification of patients at risk.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to perform a three-dimensional evaluation of the skeletal relapse of the proximal and distal mandibular segments following isolated bilateral sagittal split osteotomy advancement surgery. One hundred consecutive patients (mean age 25.8±11.7 years), comprising 65 female patients (mean age 26.4±12.1 years) and 35 male patients (mean age 24.6±11.0 years) requiring mandibular advancement without genioplasty, were enrolled prospectively in the study. Cone beam computed tomography scans were acquired for each patient at three time-points: preoperatively, immediately (1-6 weeks) after surgery, and 1 year after surgery. A validated tool was utilized to assess the surgical movement and relapse. Based on percentage, the majority of the distal and proximal translational and rotational movements relapsed within the range of ≤2mm and ≤2°. The distal segment revealed a significant relapse in a posterior, inferior, and clockwise pitch direction. Both left and right proximal segments showed a significant translational relapse in the medial, posterior, and superior direction. Amongst the rotational parameters, proximal segments relapsed significantly in clockwise pitch, clockwise roll, and counterclockwise yaw direction. Overall, both distal and proximal bone segments showed a clinically acceptable translational and rotational stability. The proximal segments torqued towards their original position with a reduction of flaring.

Abstract
Orthognathic surgery is the standard procedure to correct congenital, developmental, or acquired dentofacial deformities. The maxillomandibular relationship corrected by orthognathic surgery can improve facial esthetics, masticatory function, articulation, and breathing. The most common types of osteotomies include the combination of Le Fort I osteotomy, bilateral sagittal split mandibular ramus osteotomy, and genioplasty. High-resolution low-dose computed tomography is useful for evaluating the facial skeleton and soft tissues after surgery as well as for depicting a variety of possible complications. This article reviews the postoperative imaging findings of the most common orthognathic surgeries and their potential complications on multidetector-row computed tomography.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate biomechanical stability and stress distribution of five different fixation types with finite element analysis using 10-mm advancement with or without counterclockwise rotation of the mandible. MATERIALS AND METHODS After sagittal split osteotomy, 10-mm advancement was performed in the first group and 10-mm advancement and 10-degree counterclockwise rotation were performed in the second group. One miniplate (M-1), two-miniplate (M-2), one miniplate and a bicortical screw (H), l-shaped bicortical screw (B-1), and inverted l-shaped bicortical screw (B-2) systems were placed. Totally, 120 N force was applied to the models at a 45-degree angle from the lower edge of the symphysis. RESULTS The highest values on fixation were seen with miniplate, while the mean values were obtained with bicortical screw system. The highest values on bone were achieved using bicortical screws. One miniplate (M-1) showed both the highest and mean displacement. The highest values in counterclockwise-rotated models increased in all parameters, compared to non-rotated models. CONCLUSION In cases in which passive alignment between segments and adequate bone contact are ensured, inverted l-shaped bicortical screw, two-miniplate, or hybrid systems are recommended.

Abstract
The repositioning of bone segments during orthognathic surgeries often results in mandibular condyle positional changes and can also affect jaw muscles, soft tissues and the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Condylar displacements are considered as one of the factors of bone remodeling and further skeletal relapse. The quantitative approach is commonly used in comparative analyses and evaluations of the relationships between examined factors. The aim of this study is the overview of the current literature including quantitative analysis in the research of mandibular condyle positional changes as a consequence of orthognathic surgeries. Thirty articles were included in the overview. Most of the articles present a comparative and evaluative analysis of treatment results concerning different surgical approaches, fixation methods or types of skeletal defects. The correlation between condylar displacements and bone remodeling, skeletal relapse and TMJ dysfunctions were considered. The most frequently repeated study variables were: short-term changes, Class III malocclusion, yaw rotation, 3D cephalometry measurements. Quantitative data might be useful in the evaluation of patterns and range of condylar displacements for specific treatment conditions. Available literature concerning the analysed topic is characterized by great heterogeneity with regards to the purpose and methodologies of the studies. More systematic approaches and long-term considerations are needed in future research.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study evaluated whether presurgical characteristics, the magnitude of mandibular advancement, and changes in mandibular plane angle are correlated with long-term stability and postsurgical condylar remodeling and adaptations using 3-dimensional imaging. METHODS Forty-two patients underwent bilateral sagittal split osteotomies for mandibular advancement using rigid fixation. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were acquired before surgery (T1), immediately after surgery (T2), and at long-term follow-up (T3). The average follow-up period was 5.3 ± 1.7 years after surgery. Anatomic landmark identification on the cone-beam computed tomographies and subsequent quantification of the changes from T1 to T2 and T2 to T3 were performed in ITK-SNAP (version 2.4; itksnap.org) and 3DSlicer (version 4.7; http://www.slicer.org) software. Surgical displacements, mandibular plane angle changes, and skeletal stability were measured relative to cranial base superimposition, whereas condylar remodeling was measured relative to regional condylar registration. Partial correlation coefficients were used to assess relationships between clinical and surgical variables, condylar remodeling, and long-term surgical relapse while controlling for variability in the length of follow-up. RESULTS B-point relapsed more than 2 mm posteriorly in 55% of the patients. The only variables strongly associated with the posterior movement of B-point long-term were mesial yaw of the condyle during surgery (P ≤0.01) and the length of follow-up from T2 to T3 (P ≤ 0.01). There was no relationship between the magnitude of advancement or presurgical mandibular plane angle and relapse or condylar resorption. Condylar resorption was strongly associated with relapse of B-point in the posterior direction (P ≤0.01) and clockwise rotation of the mandibular plane long-term (P ≤0.01). Twenty-nine percent of subjects showed resorption of more than 2 mm in the inferior direction at the lateral pole, and 17% of the subjects showed resorption of more than 2 mm in the inferior direction at condylion. Compared with male subjects, females exhibited significantly greater condylar remodeling (P ≤0.01) and slightly greater relapse at B-point (P ≤0.05). CONCLUSIONS Surgical relapse at B-point may occur slowly over time and is primarily due to condylar resorption in mandibular advancement patients. Mesial yaw of the condyle during surgery may lead to condylar resorption postsurgically. In addition, females are at greater risk of condylar resorption postsurgically.
