A computer-implemented method aspect of that technique comprises creating a numeric model of a maxilla based on patient-specific data of the maxilla. The numeric model is representative of mechanic properties of the maxilla. Based on the numeric model thus generated, one or more cut configurations for one or more bone cuts on at least one of aleft hand 10 side and a right hand side of the maxilla are determined. Each cut configuration has been determined to compensate for asymmetric mechanic properties of the maxilla. In a further step, a data set indicative of the one or more cut configurations thus determined is generated. The data set may be used to create a surgical template or jig, for a computer-assisted surgery or in connection with a surgical navigation sys15 tem. (Fig. 8) 208/14 500 600 tn.
