During orthodontic-surgical treatment of dentofacial deformities, centric relation of the mandibular condylar head to the fossa articularis must be maintained. Intraoperative application of the condylar positioning appliance, in combination with different surgical splints, allows three-dimensional adjustment of the jaw segments. The condylar positioning appliance can be used in osteotomies of the mandible alone, in isolated Le Fort I osteotomies, or in simultaneous osteotomies of the maxilla and mandible.
在牙颌面畸形的正畸-外科治疗过程中，必须维持下颌髁突头部与关节窝的正中关系。术中应用髁突定位器，并结合不同的外科夹板，可对颌骨节段进行三维调整。髁突定位器可单独用于下颌骨截骨术、孤立的Le Fort I型截骨术，或上颌骨和下颌骨的同期截骨术。
