The jaws are color-coded for surgery simulation to visually indicate the pre- and postoperative position. Upper left: Initial situation prior to bimaxillary surgery. Upper right: Cloned upper jaw advanced with posterior impaction. The center of transformation is located in the center of the pivot (widget) at the upper incisor edge. Lower left: Set back of the cloned lower jaw in final occlusion. Lower right: Top view of merging areas between upper and lower occlusal meshes. Early contacts occur in these areas, which must be taken into account during postoperative orthodontic treatment
