Zusammenfassung:	PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of manufacturing a bite splint which assures installation of a correct positional relationship between upper and lower jaws considering that an interference and interspace between bone sections in surgery are diminished as much as possible, for supporting upper and lower jawbone osteotomy for a patient with jaw deformity. SOLUTION: In a three-dimensional cranial image made by obtaining cranial tomographic data in a cranium of the patient with jaw deformity, a virtual bite splint is made by obtaining an impression of an occluding surface between upper and lower jaws. Additionally, the bite splint is made based on data of the virtual bite splint. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
