Setting and Sample Population: Seventy consecutive patients of both sexes, who were submitted to bimaxillary orthognathic surgery between 2015 and 2019 were included in our study. Material and Methods: The patients were evaluated by fusing preoperative planning and postoperative outcome using CBCT scan evaluation. 3D VSP and postoperative outcome were compared by using three linear and three angular measurements. The main outcome interest was the difference between the VSP movement, and the surgical movement obtained. The success criterion adopted was a mean linear difference of <2 mm and a mean angular difference of <4°. Results: Results were analyzed using a linear mixed model with fixed and random effects, at α=0.05. No significant statistical differences were found for linear and angular measurements between the planned and postsurgical outcomes (p>0.05). All overlapping points presented values within the range considered clinically irrelevant (<2 mm; <1°). Conclusions: 3D VSP was executed with a high degree of accuracy. When comparing the planned and postsurgical outcomes, all overlapping points presented values within the range considered clinically irrelevant.
