- Abstract
Due to the increasing interest of adult patients in orthodontic treatment, orthognathic surgery is becoming more and more present in everyday orthodontic practice. Despite rapid advances in this field and the latest technology, the postoperative relapse still plays a major role. In order to achieve a predictable and stable result, the physiologic condyle-fossa relationship and its accurate intraoperative positioning is always up for discussion. The variety of navigation methods to intraoperatively preserve a physiologic condylar position have not yet become established in routine clinical practice. Based on study results and experience from everyday clinical practice, the intraoperative positioning using suitable tools is recommended. Especially in clinics with a large number of practitioners with different levels of experience, the use seems to reduce individual differences.
