A magnetic fixation and orientation system for orthognathic surgery planning models

[摘要] A useful method of handling orthognathic treatment models is described that utilises magnetic attachment of study models to an articulator, allowing rapid and reliable manipulation between pre- and post-operative positions of the maxilla and/or mandible. Both the orthodontic and surgical staff can easily study planned surgical movements.
