  • 893 Accesses

Abstract

This chapter presents the diagnostic criteria, treatment planning, and surgical protocols for the application of computer-assisted surgical simulation (CASS) for patients requiring TMJ total joint replacement and orthognathic surgery (C-TJR-OS). The CASS protocol decreases the preoperative workup time and increases the accuracy of model preparation and subsequent surgery.
