Objectives: Aim of our study was the in vivo evaluation of the new developed bone welding method for the fixation of diacapitular mandibular condyle fractures by resorbable pins with a…
The three-dimensional (3D) virtual treatment planning and simulation of the patient with a dentofacial deformity are discussed. Objectives: The aim of this report was to present an integrated 3-dimensional virtual…
A European Commission funded project (“Saliwell”) has developed an intra-oral electro-stimulator of salivary glands to treat dry mouth. The device, named “GenNarino”, is a removable appliance, combining micro-electronics, battery, software…
The aim of this presentation is to demonstrate the recent innovations in stereophotogrammetry for accurate three-dimensional analysis of the face. The capture time for the face is 3 ms, it…
Establishing a process line from Digital Volume Tomography, through CAD/CAM implant modeling to the fabrication of patient individual implants and surgical guides. Taking advantage of latest developments in high resolution…
Objectives: With an ever-increasing strain on time available and financial restrictions to study leave budgets, centralised educational opportunities are getting more difficult to organise for postgraduate trainees. The logistics for…
Surgeries intending to reposition upper and lower jaw in patients suffering from dysgnathia and malocclusion are common and well established, but highly elective interventions. 3-d virtual planning for this kind…
When preparing patients for orthognatic surgery, one of the major concerns besides the functional outcome is the prediction of the postoperative facial appearance. To satisfy this whish, two-dimensional computer-assisted profile…
Objectives: To test the feasibility of the application of 3D planning software in the severe deformities with hemimandibular hyperplasia. Methods and materials: 13 consecutive patients from the department of Oral…
The aim of this study is to show positional changes of the mandibular condylar axis after backward or centering movements in skeletal class III patients. The anatomy of the body…
