Brief Summary

Current advances in the three-dimensional virtual surgical planning (3D-VSP) of the orthognathic surgery have brought newer insights, enormous benefits and have become an indispensable aid for diagnosis, treatment planning and outcome assessment especially in the management of dentofacial deformities. The extent to which the planned surgical outcome could be achieved is dependent on the surgeon's ability to accurately transfer the planned movements to the real surgical field. Accurate repositioning of the maxilla after Le-fort I osteotomy is of utmost importance for an esthetic and functional purposes. The goal of this interventional study is to compare the 3D photogrammetry technique versus the commercial scanners for accurate repositioning of maxillary segment after le-fort I osteotomy using the reverse engineering technology. The main question it aims to answer; Is the utilization of the 3D Photogrammetry technique affect the accuracy of maxillary segment repositioning after le-fort I osteotomy compared with the commercial scanners?

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Accuracy of maxillary segment repositioning

    The actual postoperative 3D maxillary segment position will be compared with the preoperative virtual maxillary positioning by: A) Linear and angular measurements: Some specific reproducible points and planes will be identified on the 3D virtual model, and then on the post-surgery model. The distance from points to planes will be calculated on each model and the difference between these distances is to be registered as the error of accuracy. B) Color-coded map: Different colors show the distance between the surfaces, with green color usually showing the lack of distance, meaning zero error of accuracy. This method of assessing changes in 3D surfaces involves measuring the point-to-point distance of one mesh (VSP - 3D model reference) to the second mesh (Postoperative - 3D model test) and generating a color distance map.

    Outcome will be assessed with immediate postoperative Computed Tomography at one week.

Study Arms (2)

Maxillary segment repositioning by utilizing reverse engineering using the 3D photogrammetry.

EXPERIMENTAL

* The printed stereolithographic model with the adapted miniplates will be scanned using 3D photogrammetry technique and a specific software dedicated for image acquisition will be used. * A guide will be designed on the reproduced virtual model. This guide will be used intraoperative as a locating and positioning guide for the maxilla and the plates.

Procedure: Maxillary Segment Repositioning

Maxillary segment repositioning by utilizing reverse engineering using the commercial scanners.

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

• The printed stereolithographic model with the adapted miniplates will be scanned using the commercial scanners and imported for virtual designing of the positioning and locating guide that will be used intraoperative for positioning the maxilla.

Procedure: Maxillary Segment Repositioning

Interventions

* Le-Fort I osteotomy will be made using the cutting guide. * Mobilization of the maxilla will be done. * The osteotomized segment will be positioned using the positioning guide that will be fabricated utilizing the reverse engineering technology using 3D photogrammetry technique. * While the guide in place, the plates will be fixed into their intended position. * After fixation of the plates, the guide will be removed.
