Managing Predicted Post-Orthognathic Surgical Defects Using Combined Digital Software: A Case Report

For facial abnormalities, recent developments in virtual surgical planning (VSP) and the virtual design of surgical splints are accessible. Software companies have worked closely with surgical teams for accurate outcomes, but they are only as reliable as the data provided to them. The current case’s aim was to show a fully digitized workflow using a combination of three digital software to correct predicted post–upward sliding genioplasty defects. To reach our goal, we presented a 28-year-old man with long-face syndrome for orthodontic treatment. Before orthognathic surgery, a clinical and paraclinical examination was performed. For a virtual surgical plan, we used the dedicated surgical planning software NemoFab (Nemotec, Madrid, Spain) and Autodesk MeshMixer (Autodesk Inc., San Rafael, CA, USA). To create the design of the digital guides, DentalCAD 3.0 Galway (exocad GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany) and Autodesk MeshMixer (Autodesk Inc., San Rafael, CA, USA) were used. The patient had undergone bilateral sagittal split osteotomy in addition to Le Fort 1 osteotomy and genioplasty, followed by mandible base recontouring ostectomy. Stable fixation was used for each osteotomy. Based on our case, the current orthognathic surgery planning software was not able to perform all the necessary operations autonomously; therefore, future updates are eagerly awaited.


Introduction
For the last 40 years, model block surgery, alongside traditional two-dimensional (2D) cephalometric radiographs, has been a valuable tool in planning orthognathic surgery treatment.
Initially, surgeons and orthodontists primarily focused on occlusion and mastication function. However, over time, there has been growing concern about improving other functions, such as breathing and facial aesthetics. Despite their significance in planning and the final outcome, they did not give much information about the osteotomy sites after repositioning the bones to the desired position. An untrained eye could easily overlook unwanted gaps, interferences, and steps.
Computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) has revolutionized craniomaxillofacial surgery by improving the planning of osteotomies, the fabrication of splints, the development of osteotomy and ostectomy guides, the stereolithography of bones, and even custom osteosynthesis plates [1][2][3]. mA, Field of view (FOV) 18/16.5, focal spot = 0.5 mm, Voxel size = 0.10. the CBCT scans were acquired in the natural head position (NHP) in an upright position. The condyles were sited in centric relation (CR), and the preoperative occlusion in CR was fixed with a wax-byte at the preoperative CBCT scanning; however, without the wax-byte at the postoperative CBCT scanning acquisition. The CBCT data were exported in the digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) format.

The clinical examination was confirmed by the cephalometric analysis of a skeletal class III patient (Tables 1 and 2).

Virtual Surgical Plan
All obtained data were first imported into NemoFab surgical planning software (Nemotec, Madrid, Spain) before being analyzed (Figure 3a-c).
We first opted for an upward sliding genioplasty rather than a reduction in the anterior mandible because the latter would not achieve the proper advancement needed, the mandible angle degree would not be decreased, and would not preserve bony contact (Figure 4a-d).
By selecting this solution, the anterior mandible height and the proper position of the Pogonion (Pg) to the TVL were both resolved, but this resulted in a 7.5 mm step between the posterior wing of the chin and the body of the mandible, which was detrimental to a continuous base of the mandible.
Since the NemoFab surgical planning software did not allow us to design a new set of osteotomies, it was necessary to export the .STL files of the mandible in its final position (both condylar bearing fragments, body of mandible, and upward sliding genioplasty) into software capable of performing Boolean operations (the union). For this purpose, Autodesk MeshMixer (Autodesk Inc., San Rafael, CA, USA) was used ( Figure 5).

Digital Surgical Guides Design
Following this step, a single unified .STL file was exported into DentalCAD 3.0 Galway software (exocad GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany) to create three digital surgical guides: one mental and two laterals (Figure 6a,b). Although NemoFab included a guided designing option, it could only be used after the bones were initially positioned with the osteotomy design.

In our case, five digital guides were created: an intermediate splint, a palatal splint, lateral reduction guides left and right, and an anterior guide (mental guide).

Digital Guides Fabrication
The surgical guides were fabricated from acrylic resin (Phrozen Water-Washable Dental Model 3D Printer Resin, Phrozen Technology, Hsinchu, Taiwan) using an ASIGA 3D MAX UV printer (ASIGA, Alexandria, NSW, Australia) before they were then sterilized for surgery (Figure 8a-c).

Sterilizing by immersion for 25 minutes in peracetic acid (Gigasept PAA, Schülke & Mayr GmbH, Norderstedt, Germany) was performed prior to surgery.

Surgical Intervention
Blood tests were in the normal range. The patient had surgery while under general anesthesia and nasotracheal intubation. In order to reduce bleeding and facilitate tissue dissection, a vasoconstrictor solution (6 vials of 1.7ml of articaine, 1 vial of epinephrine, 1 vial of tranexamic acid, and 100 ml of saline) was used locally.
Mental osteotomy followed, upward sliding it into the new position to correct the anterior mandible height and securing the new position by using a prebent rectangular 5 holes plate and monocortical screws (2/6 mm, Medicon eG, Tuttlingen, Germany), which led to a 7 mm advancement.
The prior designed reduction guides were placed in the designated position using the same access for BSSO with a slight anterior reflection of the periosteum until and beneath the mental foramen. To facilitate the placement of the guide and to retain visual control of the osteotomy, mental and BSSO accesses were united by a tunneling reflection of the periosteum beneath the mental nerve (Figure 9a,b). Mandible osteotomy was performed using a piezoelectric instrument (Woodpecker Ultrasurgery, Guilin Woodpecker Medical Instrument Co., LTD., Guilin, China) with a properly angled tip (US1L-Left Angle

An ice pack was used intermittently in the first 72 h following the intervention.
During the first three days post-surgery, the surgeon cleaned the patient and instructed him on how to maintain proper oral hygiene using a soft toothbrush and rinsing with a chlorhexidine solution for ten days. The patient was advised to follow a liquid diet for a month and was given elastic therapy for 40 days, after which he started post-surgical orthodontic treatment.

Cephalometric Planes
Using the true vertical line in a natural head position state as a landmark for facial aesthetics, the modified parameters are described in Table 3. The mandibular angle degree significantly decreased from 136.49 • to 128.7 • . The width of the mandible (Go-Go) increased from 90.5 mm (pre-surgery) to 96.2 mm (post-surgery).

Discussion
Long faces with maxillary or/and mandibular hyperplasia with or without asymmetry require a special interdisciplinary approach. Digital planning becomes increasingly important in these situations. The confection and use of different splints and surgical guides ensure the high predictability of surgical outcomes.
Occlusion or oral function correction is the most frequent reason for orthognathic surgery, followed by improvements to aesthetic and psychosocial functions. From the patient's point of view, facial appearance is one of the primary motives for accepting surgical interventions [18]. A descriptive quasi-experimental study conducted by Rezaei et al. [19] on 112 Persian adult patients with class III skeletal malocclusion before and after OS revealed that surgery interventions enhanced the individuals' quality of life, as well as their contentment, self-confidence, and oral function. The current case report supports such findings since the patient was satisfied with the aesthetic and functional outcomes.
The treatment plan varied from one team to another, with OS indicated either before or after orthodontic treatment. In the recent literature, the term" surgery first" is described with potential benefits in shortening treatment time and improving facial aesthetics from begging [20,21]. OS was proposed after the patient had undergone orthodontic therapy for two years.
This therapeutic approach consisted of two stages. The first stage involved an orthodontic strategy comprising decompensation and alignment. The maxillary arch was maintained and unchanged while correcting the mandibular Spee and Wilson curves. The second stage involved a surgical strategy, which encompassed maxillo-mandibular repositioning in all three spatial axes, along with the counterclockwise (CCW) rotation of the occlusal plane, in this case, of a hyper-divergent mandibular pattern. Our decision was influenced by the desire to establish an aesthetic profile connected to TVL and NHP aesthetic planes.
The current VSP software exhibits constrained versatility and limited applicability when used for the analysis of osteotomies executed in orthognathic surgery [22]. In our case, NemoFab (Nemotec, Madrid, Spain) did not allow us to perform osteotomies after virtual surgical planning.
Bone reduction in this region was indicated as a viable treatment for the bottom border of the mandible's aesthetic imbalance; in order to make the process more precise, we chose the digital method. NemoFab surgical planning software (Nemotec, Madrid, Spain) predicted that a major step would be present after upward sliding genioplasty.
The patient had undergone BSSO in addition to Le Fort 1 osteotomy and genioplasty followed by mandible base recontouring ostectomy. Stable fixation was used for each osteotomy.
Hernández-Alfaro [23] stated that the surgical management of Long Face Syndrome could involve the following methods, either alone or in combination: maxillary impaction, vertical chin reduction, and the counterclockwise rotation of the occlusal plane. In some circumstances, another procedure, guided mandible base ostectomy, could be added to achieve a straight line and a continuous mandible base.
By impacting the anterior part of the maxilla by 5 mm, the position of the chin was moved 3 mm superior, and the mandible was advanced by 1 mm. The same findings were reported by Jayakumar et al. [24] in a study on 45 patients with vertical maxillary excess. The authors observed that a superior maxillary impaction of 1 mm generated a chin movement of 0.6 mm vertically and 0.2 mm sagittally.
The 9-degree flattening of the occlusal plane translated into an advancement of 8 mm and an improvement of 4 mm, and the upward sliding genioplasty resulted in an advancement of 7 mm and an improvement of 5 mm.
The potential for recognizing consequences, including mental nerve injury and step deformity, is mentioned in the specialized literature [25,26].
The usage of only two dedicated software programs could be considered a limitation of the current case report. In light of this constraint, a comparative analysis of clinical case resolutions using commercially available software is required.

Conclusions
Rehabilitation standards in dentistry have evolved and improved as a result of new multidisciplinary concepts and more complex perspectives on additional interventions that may help patients to restore function, health, and aesthetics.
The outcomes of combining these software results proved satisfactory for both the medical team and the patient. The use of cutting guides reduced the duration of the surgery and increased the precision of mandible base ostectomy, resulting in a continuous and improved mandible base ostectomy.
In our case, current orthognathic surgery planning software was unable to perform all the necessary operations autonomously; thus, future updates should make single software applications possible, reducing the amount of time required for learning the software and the amount of money required for multiple licenses.
