Orthognathic Surgical Case Planning Assistant
Plan orthognathic surgery cases with skeletal analysis and surgical simulation
What You Can Do
You can systematically evaluate patients with severe skeletal discrepancies and develop coordinated surgical treatment plans that integrate cephalometric analysis, surgical movement simulation, and patient communication strategies. This skill structures the entire pre-operative planning process—from baseline skeletal assessment through surgical consultation readiness—ensuring precise documentation and clear coordination with maxillofacial surgery partners.
Features
Evaluate ANB, vertical dimensions, transverse discrepancies, and functional asymmetries using standardized cephalometric landmarks
Predict maxillomandibular advancement outcomes and visualize post-operative skeletal relationships before surgical consultation
Define specific surgical goals (anterior-posterior correction, vertical control, transverse expansion) with measurable parameters
Sequence pre-operative orthodontics, decompensation strategy, and timeline coordination with surgical team
Generate clear explanations of skeletal problems, surgical solutions, and realistic post-operative expectations
Create clinical summaries demonstrating medical necessity and severity criteria for surgical intervention
Ensure all pre-operative requirements completed before maxillofacial surgery consultation
Example Output
Example 1: Class III Surgical Case Summary
- Skeletal pattern: ANB -6° (severe Class III)
- Vertical: Normal FMA, adequate posterior facial height
- Plan: Maxillary advancement 5-7mm, mandibular setback 3-4mm
- Pre-surgical phase: 8-12 months decompensation and leveling
Example 2: Patient Communication Document "Your lower jaw is positioned forward relative to your upper jaw by approximately 6mm, which affects your bite and facial profile. Surgical correction involves moving your upper jaw forward and lower jaw back to establish proper alignment. Braces before surgery will prepare your teeth for the corrected jaw position."
Example 3: Surgical Consultation Readiness Checklist ✓ Cephalometric analysis with surgical predictions completed ✓ Functional assessment and TMJ status documented ✓ Patient consultation notes and consent documentation ✓ Insurance pre-authorization submitted ✓ Maxillofacial surgery referral prepared

You can systematically develop phase-by-phase orthodontic treatment protocols that synthesize diagnostic data, patient anatomy, and mechanical principles. This skill generates detailed appliance selection recommendations, extraction vs. non-extraction analyses, wire progression sequences, and clinical milestones to guide efficient execution from initial placement through retention for complex malocclusions requiring three-dimensional control.

You can generate complete treatment plans for traditional fixed appliance cases by integrating diagnostic data, skeletal/dental analysis, and biomechanical principles. Claude helps you structure extraction vs. non-extraction decisions, design anchorage control strategies, sequence mechanics systematically, and create patient-facing narratives that explain your clinical rationale. This skill is designed for moderate-to-complex cases where defensible clinical reasoning and treatment efficiency optimization are critical.

This skill provides endodontists with a systematic protocol for assessing acute dental trauma cases, establishing urgency levels based on injury type and pulp vitality indicators, and creating documented baseline diagnostics that inform treatment decisions. You'll apply standardized assessment criteria across crown fractures, root fractures, luxation injuries, and avulsions—determining which cases need immediate intervention, which benefit from staged treatment, and which require specialist consultation or referral.

You can comprehensively analyze failed root canal cases to pinpoint why initial treatment didn't succeed—whether due to technical errors, anatomical challenges, or biological factors. Claude helps you develop systematic retreatment protocols, document clinical decision-making for peer review and medicolegal protection, and create patient-facing explanations of treatment failure mechanisms.

This skill walks you through systematic treatment planning for crown and bridge cases by integrating clinical variables—biomechanical principles, esthetic demands, material properties, patient factors, and financial constraints—into coherent treatment strategies. You'll receive structured decision-making frameworks for material selection, preparation geometry, span considerations, and detailed patient communication protocols that reduce clinical errors and improve predictability across single crowns, multi-unit bridges, complex esthetic cases, and implant-supported restorations.
