Comparing 3D-Printed and Milled Titanium Plates in Jaw Surgery (Le Fort I): Accuracy and Operative Time

The purpose of this study is to find out if 3D printed patient-specific titanium plates improve surgical accuracy and decrease operative time compared to milled patient-specific titanium plates in patients having Le Fort I osteotomy for jaw correction. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do 3D-printed patient specific titanium plates improve surgical accuracy (as measured by ability to transfer the computer plan to the patient's jaw)? * Do 3D-printed patient specific titanium plates decrease operative time when compared to milled patient specific titanium plates? This study will compare two groups of patients. One group will receive 3D printed plates (study group) and the other will receive milled plates (control group) to see if the different methods of making the plates changes the surgical accuracy or operative time. All participants in the study will: * Have Le Fort I osteotomy surgery using patient specific titanium plates (either 3D printed or milled). * Have CT scans before and after surgery to evaluate accuracy. Have their operative time recorded. * Have a post-surgical follow-up to evaluate healing, stability and orthodontic treatment.

3D Printed Occlusal Splints for Intraoperative Use

A 3D printed intraoperative occlusal splint is a custom-made biocompatible resin guide that allows surgeons properly align a patient's upper and lower dentition during surgery. This alignment further places maxilla and mandible into proper position. An occlusal splint contains outlines maxillary and mandibular dentition allowing the teeth to lock into place with correct alignment. At Johns Hopkins, traditionally hand-made and industry-made 3D printed splints have been used safely. However, prior studies have demonstrated the ability of in-house 3D prints to save time and money compared to industry. In-house models are similarly produced with FDA-clear, biocompatible resin for 3D printing, and maintain equivalent safety for patients compared to industry-made models.

Evaluation of Surgical Outcomes of Patients Treated With the Surgery First Approach and Aligners

The purpose of this prospective study is to compare treatment outcomes and the quality of life of skeletal Class III patients treated with conventional fixed appliances and aligners undergoing Surgery-first approach. Data will be collected through validated questionnaires: OQLQ (Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire), OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile), SF-36 (Medical Outcomes Study 36 - Item Short-Form Health Survey) and IOTN (Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need).

Comparison of Customized and Standard Facemasks for Early Treatment of Class III Malocclusion

The aim of the study is to compare a customized facemask for the treatment of Class III malocclusion in the prepubertal growing patient (patients between the ages of 5 and 12 years) versus a standard commercial facemask. Specifically, preference, pain, difficulty in sleeping, time of use, and possible complications for the two types of facemasks will be analyzed. This is a single-center, national, controlled, superiority, randomized, crossover, open-label study. Each patient will be treated with both the customized facemask and the standard commercial facemask. Each patient will wear one type of facemask for 2 months and the other type of facemask for the next 2 months. After 2 weeks and at the end of therapy with each of the facemask types, the patient, with the possible help of the parents, will have to answer a questionnaire about pain and difficulty sleeping and report any complications. In addition, after completing both phases (fourth month), the patient should indicate a preference for one of the two types of mask with which to complete therapy for an additional 6 months.
