This document describes a new protocol for 3D surgical planning and CAD/CAM splint generation in orthognathic surgery. The protocol involves a single CBCT scan, surface scanning of the dental arches, and fusion of the datasets to create a "virtual patient" for virtual surgery planning. A proof-of-concept study on 3 skull models and 6 patients found that the pre-planned and actual intermediate positions achieved with the CAD/CAM splints had average distance errors of less than 0.20mm and 0.15mm respectively, demonstrating the accuracy of the new protocol. However, further clinical validation with larger samples is still needed.
