3.2.3 Facelift Surgeries (Rhytidectomy)
The facial aging process is affected by various factors such as bone loss and remod­eling, collagen loss, and skin wrinkling [119]. Current modern societies place a great deal of importance on youthful appearance by considering old faces as unat­tractive and undesirable on the one hand and popularizing juvenile looks on the other hand; as a result, the patients’ desire for facelift surgeries to reach a youth­looking appearance has increased signicantly over the recent years [120]. Several studies attempted to evaluate the facelift surgery rejuvenating outcome objectively and quantify the results using a variety of equipment, software, scales, and anthro­pometric assessments [121]. These studies reported that human estimations of anti­aging outcomes of facelift surgeries are a reasonably consistent method, evaluating the patients’ age reduction with a high degree of accuracy and minimal contribution from non-important factors. In addition, with recent incredible developments in image analysis, AI through DL can be a promising assistant in pre- and postopera­tive aesthetic outcome measurements and also comparing age-reductive effects of various facelift techniques which can lead to more post-op satisfaction of patients [122, 123].
3.2.4 Otoplasty
Ear deformities are corrected by surgical (aesthetic surgery) and nonsurgical thera­pies as ear molding and splinting to achieve proper hearing function and auricle symmetry on both sides. Compared to surgical approaches, the nonsurgical proce­dure has fewer postsurgical morbidities, is noninvasive and painless, and has better outcomes. Since the best time for these treatments is up to 6weeks after birth, time is an essential factor in nonsurgical interventions. Unfortunately, the ear deformity diagnosis mostly occurs after the proper window period for nonsurgical approaches [124126]. In a recent study, the potential of CNN in recognizing complex patterns from 2D photographs was used for automatic ear deformity identication. The results showed that DL was able to distinguish normal and un-normal ear photo­graphs with high accuracy (94.1%) (Fig.7) [127]. Further another DL model was trained and conrmed to evaluate the outcomes of the ear reconstructive interven­tions. The model showed up as a robust evaluation tool that was able to resolve the low interrater reliability problem by its objective, dynamic assessment [126].
3.2.5 Blepharoplasty
The upper eyelid’s downward posture produces visual abnormalities that necessitate surgical surgery to rectify the eyelid lamellae [128]; blepharoplasty also is used for the correction of emotional expressions such as happy, sad, angry, and surprised expressions [129]; similar to other applications of AI in cosmetic surgeries, age recognition also is used in blepharoplasty [130]; evaluating changes in baseline emotions after blepharoplasty surgery or 3D evaluation to gain better results is a known function of AI in blepharoplasty [129, 131]. To enhance the patient-surgeon relationship and the surgeon’s responsiveness, a machine learning model was used to analyze patients’ most common pre- and postoperative questions uploaded to

operation are primarily about correcting certain features or knowing about post-op possible complications [130].
3.2.6 Hair Transplant
AI among the development of vision-based system imaging and robotic techniques improved hair transplant grafting procedures and the accuracy of possible results [132]. For example, a robotic FU procedure can boost hairs’ numbers in each graft and attempt for harvesting [133].

3.3.1 Dental Implants
The desire for dental implants is increasing at a rapid rate. The results of real-life examples reveal that not all dental implants are successful. Therefore, it is critical to segregate patients whose implant does not lead to successful outcomes before sur­gery. Moayeri etal. proposed a combined prediction model for evaluating dental implant success. W-J48, support vector machines (SVM), neural network, K-NN, and naïve Bayes were the classiers used in this model. Each classier’s internal parameters were tuned. These classiers were integrated in such a manner so that the maximum possible accuracies were achieved. They considered factors such as gender, age, systemic conditions, smoking, location, placement, loading, diameter, length, system, type, platform, connection, parallel or taper, over-denture, and sinus lift in prediction methods. When comparing the performance of several prediction algorithms using ve-, seven-, and tenfold cross-validation, the tenfold cross-vali­dation approach outperforms the others. W-J48 had the most accurate outcomes among single classiers, while the proposed combined method was even more pre­cise [134]. Oliveira et al. conducted a similar approach and found constructive

radial basis function-dynamic decay adjustment (RBF-DDA) neural networks with parameter selection were the most benecial method to predict the success of implant rehabilitation [135]. Ha etal. tried to nd the most important prognostic factor predicting long-term implant survival. They used machine learning methods instead of traditional statistical methods because these approaches have analytical capacities for small sample sizes and may uncover a previously undiscovered com­ponent that inuences the outcome [136]. Both of the machine learning methods, the decision tree model (Fig.8) and SVM, revealed that the implant’s mesiodistal location in one tooth area and also in a total arc from the midline is the most inu­ential factor in predicting its prognosis [137].
As investigated, various variables such as applied stresses, the bone quality and quantity, and prosthetic material and form impact the bone and implant interface, implant and abutment interface, and abutment-prosthesis interactions, all of which affect the prosthesis’ success [139]. Considering variations in porosity and size of the xture, a genetic algorithm was employed by Roy etal. to build patient-specic dental implant systems. Surrogate models based on articial neural network (ANN) have been proven to be a suitable way to turn nite element analysis results into an objective function for the optimization process that is less computationally demand­ing. In the complicated paradigm of dental implant design, combining the desired function with the ANN model results in a unique technique to identify the optimal solution within an authorized range (Fig.9) [138].
3.3.2 Craniofacial Implants
Cranioplasty is the surgical intervention restoring the original morphology of the skull with cranial implants. Nowadays, cranial implants are produced manually by third-party companies with the help of computer-assisted design (CAD) software based on CT images. This process could be time- and money-consuming and requires temporary coverage of bony defects with an interim restoration. Later, sec­ondary surgery is mandatory to remove the provisional bonnet and replace it with the nal restoration, including repeated general anesthesia. Hence, an automatic, instant in-hospital (or even in operation room) manufacturing technique is desired to dispel the weakness of the classic method. Ji etal. established two databases of skull CT images to train algorithms. They manually created 240 articial bone

abnormalities on CT images of 24 healthy patients. The other database consisted of 1503 data pairs from 167 healthy skulls. A path-based training strategy with super­vised learning was used to train DL models by these databases. Covering the bony defect of the skull (Fig.10) can be formulated as a high-resolution volumetric shape completion task well handled by the AI models. This algorithm has three signicant advantages compared to similar ones: (1) It uses high-quality images for both train­ing and evaluation. (2) Unlike most medical images, the skull images are binary and sparse, making the conventional DL methods incapable. (3) Injected defects have various shapes and are not limited to a simple geometric schema to ensure the gen­eralizability of the algorithm to act appropriately in clinical situations. This modern technique will reduce the wait time. The cranial implant can be manufactured in the operation room, and the surgeon is allowed to complete bone resection and restora­tion in a single intervention. It has been said that incongruence between the borders of two adjacent patches can lead to a bumpy and uneven surface or edge, which is not desirable in restoring the skull; hence further improvements are required to ful­ll this incompetency [140, 141].
3.3.3 Craniofacial Surgery
Cleft lip and/or palate is the most common congenital oral and maxillofacial mal­formation, which involves 3in every 2000 babies in the USA [142]. AI has been used to predict the risk of developing cleft lip and/or palate and diagnose cleft lip and/or palate and in pre-surgical orthopedics and most often speech assessment of babies with this condition. Also, some studies are conducted concerning surgical procedures like orthognathic surgery or plastic lip surgery in these patients [143]. In surgical correction of these defects, surgical markers and incisions play a

crucial role in the quality of rectication [144]. CLPNet is a deep CNN marking correct surgical points and incisions. It has been trained by a dataset composed of 2568 images of complete cleft lip patients. Experienced doctors conducted the image labeling process, pointing the surgical markers (Fig.11a). It showed much better performance than CSR-based systems such as the supervised descent method (SDM) or local binary features (LBF). It means the CNN can appropri­ately adapt extracted facial features with the localization of surgical markers (Fig.11b) [145].
3.3.4 Craniosynostosis
Craniosynostosis is a congenital deformity caused by the early fusion of cranial sutures, causing many aesthetic and developmental problems. The prematurely fused suture and the accompanying cranial deformation have been used to classify cranial synostosis. Early detection is critical for the avoidance of severe problems, effective therapy, and the considerations of surgical repair [146148]. Mendoza etal. proposed a fully automatic machine learning-based approach using a statisti­cal shape model to extract diagnostic features of craniosynostosis and detect defor­mities from CT images (Fig.12). The strengths of this method are:
• Automated detection of cranial areas using graph cuts
• Selection of the most similar morphology to a patient using a multi-atlas of nor-
mal anatomy
• Suture fusion detection
• Registration by masked regions (dening a set of manual landmarks on a healthy
head CT image (the template) to indicate the region of interest for cranial mor-
phology assessment)
• Utilizing quantitative measurements of local shape and deformity to formulate
diagnoses and classications

Metopic craniosynostosis (MC) results from the early fusion of a metopic suture. Objective assessment of MC severity is benecial in treatment planning, whether to operate or conservatively manage the condition. It also may be help­ful in the prediction of poor operative outcomes, including intracranial hyperten­sion and aesthetic deformities. Plain radiography, physical examination, and CT imaging are traditional approaches for determining the severity of craniosynos­tosis; nevertheless, these modalities ultimately rely on the clinician’s subjective judgment. Bhalodia et al. designed a method combining the statistical shape analysis results with experts’ severity ranking providing an objective tool for MC severity measurement. In this method, the experts ranked the severity of defor­mity in images based on the Likert scale (from 1 to 4). ShapeWorks software analyzed the geometric relationship of 2048 different points on the 3D skull shapes. After pattern recognition by shape analysis and the experts’ ranking, a modernized machine learning algorithm (maximum likelihood estimation) uti­lized these values, calculating unknown parameters that would complete the severity prediction model, thus providing more accurate predictions. They com­pared the accuracy of this 3D model with the interfrontal angle (IFA) method based on the rankings assigned by 18 craniofacial experts. INF method has recently been widely used for severity determination in conjunction with clinical and CT image assessment [149]. The comparison results revealed that the new model might be more accurate in quantitative MC severity prediction than previ­ous well-adapted methods [150].
Theoretically, machine learning even has the potential to differ synostotic and deformational plagiocephaly using 3D surface photographs without using ionizing radiations [151].

3.3.5 Mandibular Reconstruction
The mandible’s morphology could be altered due to traumatic injuries or radical surgical procedures to remove malignancies [152]. This alteration may harm the patient’s aesthetic and functional needs. Determining the detailed original shape of the bone before the alteration is often challenging because the mandible’s morphology is unique and varies extensively among the population [153, 154]. Because of this issue, utilizing a universal standard mandibular model to recon­struct the bone is inappropriate [155]. On the other hand, digital surgical approaches like three-dimensional virtual surgical planning (3D-VSP) frequently necessitate the use of an anticipated mandibular reference model [156]. Currently, the most common digital method used in repairing the defective area is to mirror the intact side (Fig.13) or manually choose a similar entire mandible, locally fuse the data, and manually smooth the borders. However, bilateral or massive lesions and lesions crossing the midline are hard to repair with these tech­niques [157].
Data aligned rigidity constrained exhaustive search (DARCES) algorithm and the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm are favored surface registration algo­rithms, rst used in isolation [158, 159]. A combination of these two techniques named hybrid DARCES-ICP has been used to reconstruct fractured mandibles using surface matching. This completion was performed in 2D CT slices in different spatial axes but was not able to demonstrate a 3D model of reconstructed bone (Fig.14) [160].
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) give AI the ability to create and con­sist of a generative neural network for data generation and a discriminating neural network for identifying whether data are true [161]. This technique learns an image’s morphological traits and then utilizes them to build entirely new photore­alistic pictures [162, 163]. Liang etal. used a deep convolutional generative adver­sarial network (DCGAN) called CTGAN to create pictures that adhere to the
Fig. 13 Mandibular reconstruction using the mirror technique. Mirror repair or manually search­ing the similar mandibles for local data fusion and smoothing the borders are the usual technique in a conventional surgical simulation; the accuracy of this method is typically poor

anatomical characteristics of the mandible. They trained this machine learning­based model by CT scans of typical mandibles. The model could reconstruct man­dibular deciencies by generating natural and individualized 3D pictures (Fig.15). Compared to previous standard approaches such as mirror inversion, CTGAN low­ers the manual process, enhances mandibular completion efciency, and avoids technical discrepancies in classic procedures in diverse medical settings [157]. Even though current medical technology cannot give a patient a mandibular pros­thesis straight from a computer design, the design is essential since it serves as a guide for the clinician.

4 Conclusion
AI could be employed in all elds of maxillofacial surgery, including diagnosis, determination of prognosis, surgical planning, and operation. However, current AI models are typically one-type data-dependent, i.e., radiographic or cytopathologic images, while to achieve more accurate diagnostics, more medical information of patients is required to be integrated into the designed models [2]. On the other hand, most of the advances in this eld are concentrated on lesions’ diagnosis or progno­sis. Treatment planning and pre-operation analysis of patients have also gained some attention. But clinical application of AI in surgeries is still restricted due to possible risks and errors, insufcient improvement of systems, and mistrust and hesitancy of patients about novel medical interventions [164].
Studies concerning the use of AI in maxillofacial surgery have already begun and have a developing trend, but they are lagging compared to research assigned to applications of AI in other elds of medicine; thus, there is plenty of room for fur­ther investigation and improvements.
