Abstract

The technological advancements in the field of medical science have led to an escalation in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) applications, which are being extensively used in health sciences. This scoping review aims to outline the application and performance of artificial intelligence models used for diagnosing, treatment planning and predicting the prognosis of orthognathic surgery (OGS). Data for this paper was searched through renowned electronic databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, Web of science, Embase and Cochrane for articles related to the research topic that have been published between January 2000 and February 2022. Eighteen articles that met the eligibility criteria were critically analyzed based on QUADAS-2 guidelines and the certainty of evidence of the included studies was assessed using the GRADE approach. AI has been applied for predicting the post-operative facial profiles and facial symmetry, deciding on the need for OGS, predicting perioperative blood loss, planning OGS, segmentation of maxillofacial structures for OGS, and differential diagnosis of OGS. AI models have proven to be efficient and have outperformed the conventional methods. These models are reported to be reliable and reproducible, hence they can be very useful for less experienced practitioners in clinical decision making and in achieving better clinical outcomes.
