Distance-dependent accuracy in Le Fort I maxillary repositioning procedures

It has been hypothesised that, in maxillary repositioning procedures, longer distances correlate with less accurate transfers and particularly the repositioning forces of facial skin and muscles that increase exponentially. However, this has not to our knowledge been confirmed. The purpose of this study was to search for differences in the accuracy of transfer from maxillary repositioning procedures parallel to the three orthogonal planes and with respect to three different anatomical landmarks of the first molar left and right (M1L and M1R) and the first incisor (I).
