it depends upon how complex the planned surgery is...that is, one jaw versus two jaws. The more, the longer the case will go.... 3D virtual planning with custom plates should speed up the surgery.
Surgery time can vary from surgeon to surgeon due to a multitude of variables, such as experience, surgical technique, as well as if any complications are encountered.
