Summary

It is crucial to maintain the anatomic condylar positions during orthognathic surgery. Condylar positions are affected directly under general anesthesia because of joint and muscle relaxation. Possible unwanted changes in the joint position may cause incorrect positioning of the jawbones. This could affect the success of the surgery in terms of function and facial aesthetics causing the need for a second surgery. Our aim is to evaluate whether the use of MR Splint has a statistically significant effect on muscle relaxation-induced condyle position deviations under general anesthesia in Class III Laterognathia patients.
