Additional outcomes will include hospitalization time, early recovery of upper lip sensation assessed by the pinprick test, and pterygomaxillary separation patterns evaluated using postoperative CBCT imaging.\n\nThe aim of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes of the MI-Le Fort I approach with the Le Fort I approach under controlled conditions.
