Title
On The Predictability Of Tissue Changes For Osteotomy Planning In Maxillofacial Surgery: A Comparison With Postoperative Results
Abstract
A clinical case in maxillofacial surgery is presented, where a congenital hypoplasia of the midface with apparent dental malocclusion was to be treated. A 3D osteotomy planning on a polygonal skull model has been performed for different types of osteotomies, followed by a maxillary advancement under consideration of the implications on the facial soft tissue deformation, using a volumetric finite element approach. The simulation results of isotropic, homogeneous as well as inhomogeneous tissue models using a linear elastic modeling approach are quantitatively evaluated with the help of postoperative CT data.
