: Transverse maxillary deficiency is an important maxillary anomaly that is very common in society and remains current in orthodontics. The maxillary expansion has been used in treatment for a long time. While maxillary expansion can be performed with rapid maxillary expansion in young adults, it is performed with surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion (SARME) in individuals who have reached skeletal maturity.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the linear and angular differences in the nasolabial soft tissue in patients who underwent bimaxillary orthognathic surgery using two different three-dimensional imaging methods. Furthermore, the advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of these methods were determined after comparing the data obtained from the imaging methods used in the study.

Materials And Methods: Preoperative (T0) and 6-months postoperative (T1) cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and three-dimensional facial scanning (3DFS) data from 22 patients who underwent maxillary advancement surgery were examined.

The aim of this study was to compare preoperative and postoperative linear, planar, and volumetric measurements in the pharyngeal airway in orthognathic surgery patients. Preoperative and postoperative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of 60 patients, who underwent maxillary advancement with mandibular setback (Group I, n=25) and bimaxillary advancement (Group II, n=35), were compared. The airway was divided into 3 regions as nasopharynx, oropharynx, and hypopharynx.

Objective: This retrospective study evaluated the mandibular condyle position before and after bimaxillary orthognathic surgery performed with the mandibular condyle positioned manually in patients with mandibular prognathism using cone-beam computed tomography.

Methods: Overall, 88 mandibular condyles from 44 adult patients (20 female and 24 male) diagnosed with mandibular prognathism due to skeletal Class III malocclusion who underwent bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) and Le Fort I performed using the manual condyle positioning method were included. Cone-beam computed tomography images obtained 1-2 weeks before (T0) and approximately 6 months after (T1) surgery were analyzed in three planes using 3D Slicer software.

Objective: The authors aim to share their experiences in subperiosteal implant applications in atrophic jaws, which have been practiced in their clinic for about 2 years, and evaluate the complications and clinical success of the implants.

Material And Method: Clinical and radiologic data of 32 patients who underwent subperiosteal implantation for advanced alveolar bone loss were evaluated, but 1 patient was excluded as they smoked. Of the 31 patients included in the study, 27 were operated with the diagnosis of total tooth loss, 3 for maxillectomy and 1 for partial tooth loss.
