Oral and Maxillofacial surgeons play an important role in the management of head and neck trauma, pathologies, and cosmetology. Like any surgical procedure, these require skill, technique, and resources. Advances in technology and resources have led to the introduction of ‘Navigation systems’ in the planning and execution of surgeries to improve visualization of the surgical field and the outcome of the procedure. The navigation systems find their applications in the field of craniofacial trauma, pathologies, orthognathic surgeries, impactions, implantology, and skull base surgeries. This review article attempts to widen our knowledge about this system, its applications, and shortcomings and thereby emphasize further research.
