The use of customized plates in Orthognathic surgery offers precision in the repositioning of the jaws, according to the virtual planning performed, with the great advantage of avoiding the need for intermediate occlusal splints. However, the conventional customization process takes time to manufacture, present high cost and still involve legal issues with insurance companies. Moreover, a technical disadvantage is that the systems available for customized plates require large incisions, with large detachment of soft tissues for insertion of the guides and plates. The objective of this paper is to present the in-house hybrid technique for customization of guides and miniplates in orthognathic surgery using minimally invasive approaches.
