Abstract:
After years of development,the advantages of computer-assisted orthognathic surgery have been widely recognized.However,the clinical application of this technology is challenging.Each step may generate errors from data acquisition,computer-assisted diagnosis,and computer-assisted surgical design,causing errors to be transferred from the virtual surgical plan to the operation.The accumulation and amplification of errors will affect the final surgical ef-fect.Currently,digital devices,such as intraoral scanners,are being explored for error control,utilizing automation methods and algorithms,and implementing personalized bone positioning methods.Moreover,there are still many prob-lems that have not been fully resolved,such as precise simulation of postoperative soft tissue,functional assessment of mandibular movement,and absorbable internal fixation materials.Fully understanding computer-assisted orthognathic surgery's limitations could provide direction for optimizing existing methods while helping clinicians avoid risks and maximize its advantages to achieve the best outcome.Many emerging and cutting-edge technologies,such as personal-ized titanium plates,artificial intelligence,and surgical robots,will further promote the development of this discipline.We can expect future optimization of digital orthognathic surgical technology by innovations in automation,intelligence,and personalization.
