Marco Caminiti: Are we too dependent on digital planning in orthognathic surgery?
The preparation of Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP) is time-consuming and demands costly hardware and software. Challenges also arise in handling dental occlusion and simulating soft tissues. Dr. Caminiti will explain why VSP doesn't replace traditional methods, but serves as a valuable tool.

About the event
In this thought-provoking lecture, Dr. Marco Caminiti critically examines the growing reliance on digital technologies in orthognathic surgery. As virtual surgical planning, 3D imaging, CAD/CAM splints, and patient-specific guides become increasingly integrated into routine practice, this session explores whether technological advancement may be overshadowing foundational surgical principles and clinical judgment.
Dr. Caminiti discusses the advantages of digital workflows—including improved precision, efficiency, and interdisciplinary communication—while also addressing potential limitations such as cost, technical errors, overconfidence in software outputs, and reduced hands-on planning skills. Through clinical examples and reflective analysis, attendees are encouraged to strike a balanced approach that integrates innovation with sound surgical expertise, ensuring optimal functional and aesthetic outcomes for patients undergoing orthognathic surgery.
