“…Indeed, the website of highest quality came from a private practice. Only 13 websites out of 48 provided information on possible risks or side-effects of orthognathic surgery, although according to the current literature complications occur in approximately 20% of patients (Zaroni et al, 2019).…”

The aim of this study was to assess the quality of online information for patients on orthognathic surgery. Materials and methods: A selection of search terms specific for orthognathic surgery was chosen and 150 websites were identified using the Internet search engines Google, Yahoo and Bing. Irrelevant websites were excluded. The remaining websites were assessed with a modified Ensuring Quality Information for Patients (EQIP) tool. EQIP evaluates the quality of medical patient information by measuring the three key aspects of content, structure, and identification data. Results: 48 relevant websites were identified. EQIP values ranged between 2 and 28 (median 13.65). While 37 of the 48 websites described details of the surgical procedures, only 13 mentioned possible risks and complications of the surgery. No differences were found between the websites of private practices, dentists and public hospitals, universities, or others (p ¼ 0.66). Websites found by Google had a significantly lower EQIP score compared with Yahoo and Bing (11.12 vs. 16.60 for Yahoo and 16.23 for Bing; p ¼ 0.012). The better the rank of the website, the higher the EQIP score (r ¼ À0.411, p ¼ 0.004). Conclusions: The results of this study reflected a large variation of quality of information on orthognathic surgery on the Internet. Therefore, surgeons must be aware that they might be confronted with unrealistic expectations of patients, who may underestimate the potential risks and drawbacks of orthognathic surgery.

“…However, orthognathic surgery inherently carries a risk of morbidity, is expensive, and needs post-surgical hospitalization; this has led to a significant demand for a non-surgical alternative. 7 Non- Due to variations in skeletal discrepancy, a specific case may demand not only anteroposterior (A-P), but also vertical and transverse displacements of the dental arch. Where the A-P and vertical displacements are concerned, localizing the centre of resistance of the whole arch must precede the appliance design.…”

“…Relocation of the maxillomandibular jawbones via orthognathic surgery may be indicated primarily for the correction of occlusion in severe skeletal discrepancies, which cannot be camouflaged by tooth movement. However, orthognathic surgery inherently carries a risk of morbidity, is expensive, and needs post‐surgical hospitalization; this has led to a significant demand for a non‐surgical alternative 7 . Non‐surgical treatment of skeletal discrepancy in general is challenging due to the amount of tooth movement, extension of treatment time, questionable predictability of the tooth movement, anatomical barriers, and the complexity of the tooth movement in three dimensions.…”

Currently, miniscrews or mini-implants, which are widely used as temporary anchorage devices for orthodontic treatment, are mainly made of grade 5 titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V). This allows for small-sized miniscrews less likely developing a fracture during insertion, reduces patient discomfort, and avoids root or periodontal ligament proximity when placed in the inter-radicular spaces. 1 Typically, the miniscrews are cylindrical and tapered and have a diameter of 1.0-2.3 mm and a length of 5.0-17.0 mm. They must be at least 1 mm in diameter and at least 3.8 mm in length within the alveolar bone, to ensure stability. 2 The failure rate of the miniscrew is 13.5%-14.0%, which is correlated with the cortical bone thickness. 3,4 The failure rate in the mandible is higher than that in the maxilla due to excessive insertion

“…In non-growing skeletal class III patients that cannot be adequately treated only with an orthodontic therapy, the orthodontic–surgical treatment is the therapeutic approach of choice. Therefore, orthognathic surgery is indicated in the treatment of patients with moderate or severe malocclusions which outweigh the implications for an orthodontic correction only [ 7 , 8 ].…”

Background: Technological progress has led to the transition to digital methods to perform surgical planning and to obtain surgical splints with CAD/CAM technologies. The present study aimed to compare the accuracy of jaw repositioning in bimaxillary orthognathic surgery using traditional and digital surgical planning in skeletal class III patients. Methods: This study included 60 skeletal class III patients divided into two groups based on the method used to perform surgical planning: traditional (T, n = 30) and digital (D, n = 30). For each patient, a 2D presurgical Visual Treatment Objective (VTO) was prepared and the outcome of the surgery was compared with that planned by using determined cephalometric measurements (ANB, SNA, SNB, Ar-Go-Me, S-Ar-Go). Statistical analysis showed that the measurements planned and those obtained after surgery were equivalent in Group D. For Group T, the analysis showed equivalence only for one of the considered measurements (ANB). By comparing the results of the two groups, Group D presented a lower level of error than Group T. Conclusions: Digital surgical planning performed significantly better in terms of accuracy of jaw repositioning than the traditional protocol.
