How 3D-Printed Surgical Guides Ensure Operative Precision

The success of any virtual surgical plan depends on the accurate transfer of that plan into the operating room. This is achieved through the use of custom-made, 3D-printed orthognathic splints and guides. These CAD/CAM-manufactured tools are designed within the virtual environment to lock the jaws into the exact planned maxillomandibular relationship

Research 

By using bespoke surgical guides, surgeons can significantly reduce the risk of manual errors associated with traditional acrylic splints, leading to more predictable outcomes in corrected dental occlusion and facial harmony
