The NemoFAB software is a tool designed for use by specialized dental practices and surgeons for capturing, storing and presenting patient images and supporting the diagnostic process and virtual treatment planning in Orthognathic Surgery procedures.NemoFAB has specific functionalities to visualize the diagnostic information, e.g. from CT-imaging, to perform specific measurements in the image data and to plan surgical actions in order to support the diagnostic and treatment planning process.Based on the CT or CBCT of the skull and the models of the teeth of the patient, the user (an oral and maxillofacial surgeon) designs the treatment plan, moving the osteotomized bones to the appropriate location to fix the bite, the face and/or any other deformities.The module allows the user to import the dental casts in STL format (from a laboratory scanner or intraoral scanner) and merge them to the CT of the patient; this process is necessary if a splint is going to be created. The airway of the patient can be segmented from the CT for analysis purpose and the TMJ (temporomandibular joint) can be studied for supporting the diagnose. Several types of osteotomies are supported: Le Fort 1, Sagittal split, Ramus and Chin.The Arnett/Gunson cephalometric tracing allows the surgeon to have accurate measurements information about the position of the anatomical structures and the extent of the movements; ceph tracing allows the user to digitize anatomical landmarks on a patient’s DICOM (in 3D) or radiograph (in 2D). Arnett/Gunson FAB Cephalometric Analysis performs face, airway and bite analysis, and allows to simulate a treatment plan for orthodontic and surgical cases based on the methodologies of Dr. William Arnett. If the user does not want to follow the protocol of Dr. Arnett, a manual way treatment plan can be simulated. The knowledge of the surgical positions allows this module to create splints for aiding the surgeon in the placement of the bones in the surgery.
An application software program intended to facilitate dental treatment, which may include dental implant and/or oral/maxillofacial surgery planning, by storing/displaying patient demographics/clinical data and treatment plans, and may control settings for dental equipment (e.g., a line-powered dental drilling system). It is typically for installation in an off-the-shelf desktop, laptop or tablet computer, which may require a connection to the dental equipment. It typically includes upgrades to the software.
