Background:
Patients undergoing orthognathic surgery may have limited information surrounding surgery. This leads to less satisfaction with surgical outcomes, anxiety surrounding surgery and difficulty following perioperative instructions.
Solution:
Providing a multi-disciplinary pre-operative educational experience for patients and caregivers improves surgical readiness and satisfaction.
What Is New:
Our team provides a "Jaw Surgery Workshop" which includes lectures from providers, previous patients, cookbooks and supplies. This allows for improved confidence and expectations surrounding jaw surgery.
