    Background:

    • Surgical correction of dentofacial deformities often improves psychosocial well-being.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify factors predicting patient dissatisfaction after corrective surgery.
    • To classify patients based on their risk of negative psychological reactions.
    • To guide surgical decision-making and postoperative management.

    Main Methods:

    • Evaluation of specific psychological factors.
    • Classification of patients into risk groups for dissatisfaction.
    • Assessment of response to supportive measures and psychiatric cooperation.

    Main Results:

    • Patients can be categorized into three risk groups for postoperative dissatisfaction.
    • Supportive measures can aid some negative reactors.
    • Close psychiatric collaboration or deferral of surgery may be necessary for others.

    Conclusions:

    • Preoperative psychological assessment is crucial for optimizing surgical outcomes.
    • Tailored interventions based on psychological evaluation can improve patient satisfaction.
    • Proactive management of psychological factors enhances surgeon and patient satisfaction.
