This color atlas and manualprovides clinicians with systematic, standardized, but also individualizedstep-by-step guidance on 3D virtual diagnosis, treatment planning, and outcomeassessment in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery for maxillofacialdeformities. Drawing on 20 years of experience, the authors elucidate theclinical potential of the approach while also highlighting current pitfalls andlimitations. The opening two chapters discuss the 3D imaging workflow and itsintegration into daily clinical routine and comprehensively describe cone-beamCT virtual diagnosis. The stepwise 3D virtual planning of orthognathic surgeryand transfer of the 3D virtual treatment plan to the patient in the operatingroom are then thoroughly explained, and the unprecedented potential of 3Dvirtual evaluation of treatment outcome, documented.  Finally, after provision of all thisessential background information, the closing chapter illustrates theapplication of the 3D virtual approach in different types of maxillofacialdeformity. Orthodontists and orthognathic and orthofacial surgeons will find 3D Virtual Treatment Planning ofOrthognathic Surgery to be a superb guide and resource.
