BACKGROUND Digital splints are indispensable in orthognathic surgery. However, the present design process of splints is time-consuming and has low reproducibility. To solve these problems, an algorithm for artificial intelligent splints has been developed in this study, making the automatic design of splints accessible. METHODS Firstly, the algorithm and program of the artificial intelligence splint were created. Then a total of 54 patients with skeletal class III malocclusion were included in this study from 2018 to 2020. Pre and postoperative radiographic examinations were performed. The cephalometric measurements were recorded and the difference between virtual simulation and postoperative images was measured. The time cost and differences between artificial intelligent splints and digital splints were analyzed through both model surgery and radiographic images. RESULTS The results showed that the efficiency of designing splints is significantly improved. And the mean difference between artificial intelligent splints and digital splints was <0.15 mm in model surgery. Meanwhile, there was no significant difference between the artificial intelligent splints and digital splints in radiological image analysis. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, compared with digital splints, artificial intelligent splints could save time for preoperative design while ensuring accuracy. The authors believed that it is conducive to the presurgical design of orthognathic surgery.
