PURPOSE: to gain a national understanding of the utilization of surgical navigation among maxillofacial surgeons in France through a web-based questionnaire. METHODS: A 14-point multiple-choice questionnaire was created and distributed to the participants, divided into two sections. The first section gathered general information about the respondents, and the second section provided an overview of the use of surgical navigation. RESULT: A total of 75 participants completed the survey. The results showed that a majority of university hospital departments (65%) utilize an intra-operative 3D imaging system, while very few private clinics and general hospitals use this technology. CONCLUSION: The survey suggests that surgical navigation is primarily used in university centers in French maxillofacial surgery, with limited utilization and non-standardized indications for use.
