Augmented reality vs CAD/CAM system in orthognathic surgery: development and accuracy evaluation
Although CAD/CAM remains more accurate, the AR-based system offers advantages in real-time visualization and reduced costs and preoperative time by eliminating the need for 3D-printed guides. However, the current accuracy limitations highlight the need for further refinement of AR systems and increased operator training. Future studies are needed to validate the clinical applicability and reliability of AR-guided orthognathic surgery.
