3D planning in orthognathic surgery: CAD/CAM surgical splints and prediction of the soft and hard tissues results – Our experience in 16 cases
(Journal of Cranio-Maxillofacial Surgery, 2012)The aim of this article is to determine the advantages of 3D planning in predicting postoperative results and manufacturing surgical splints using CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing) ... -
Age-specific three-dimensional mandibular norms as an adjunctive tool for detecting mandibular growth disturbances: A CBCT study
(The Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2026-07-17)Normative 3-dimensional mandibular reference values derived from well-defined, symmetrical populations without radiographic temporomandibular joint (TMJ) alterations are limited, yet they are essential ... -
Airway volume changes after orthognathic surgery in patients with down syndrome: a diagnostic-therapeutic algorithm
(Journal of Otolaryngology Head & Neck Surgery, 2021)Background: Down syndrome (DS) patients tend to suffer severe dentofacial and skeletal deformities leading to severe occlusal, speech and respiratory problems. The increase in life expectancy of these ... -
Barcelona line. A multicentre validation study of a facial projection reference in orthognathic surgery
(British Journal of Oral and Maxilofacial Surgery, 2023)The purpose of this study was to validate an already published facial anteroposterior reference: upper incisor (UI) to soft tissue plane or so-called Barcelona line (BL) to trace the most aesthetic ... -
Fate of the mandible in class III patients subjected to bimaxillary surgery with a new 3D planning reference
(Applied Sciences, 2025)Class III patients have classically been managed through monomaxillary techniques, mainly involving mandibular setback movements. More recently, according to the upper incisor to soft tissue plane ... -
Improving accuracy of the intermediate splint in substantial intermaxillary sagittal discrepancies using an extra anterior anchorage point: technical note
(Medicina Oral Patologia Oral y Cirugia Bucal, 2021-03)Background: To describe a technical feature that increases the stability of the intermediate splint in patients where bimaxillary surgery with great maxillary/mandibular advancements are planned. Material ... -
Inferior subapical osteotomy for dentoalveolar decompensation of class III malocclusion in ‘surgery-first’ and ‘surgery-early’ orthognathic treatment
(International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2017)Increasing experience with alternative timing protocols in orthognathic surgery has given way to new surgical and orthodontic techniques to shorten treatment times, reduce biological costs, and improve ... -

(Advances in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2025) -
Three-dimensional evaluation of postoperative stability: a comparative study between surgery-first and surgery-late protocols
(International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2023)The main objective of this study was to compare the stability of the surgery-first and surgery-late approaches according to the standardized centre protocols, by three-dimensional evaluation after 1 ... -
Transmucosal pterygomaxillary disjunction using a piezoelectric device, in the context of the minimally invasive Le Fort I osteotomy protocol
(International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2023)The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy and clinical implications of pterygomaxillary junction (PMJ) disjunction with a transmucosal PMJ osteotomy using a piezoelectric hand-piece device, in ... -
Variation between natural head orientation and Frankfort horizontal planes in orthognathic surgery patients: 187 consecutive cases
(International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2021)The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between the Frankfort horizontal (FH) and natural head orientation (NHO), their correlation between patients’ malocclusion, and the impact of ...
