This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate the accuracy and outcomes of virtual surgical planning (VSP) compared to the traditional surgical technique in the reduction of zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fractures. Twenty patients with ZMC fractures will be randomly assigned into two equal groups: one treated using virtual planning and prebent titanium miniplates, and the other treated conventionally without virtual planning. Clinical evaluation will include facial symmetry, eye movement, and postoperative complications, while radiographic assessment will be performed using CT scans three months after surgery to measure bone formation and alignment accuracy. The study seeks to determine whether virtual surgical planning improves anatomical restoration, esthetics, and functional outcomes compared to traditional methods.
