Summary
The ideal patient for orthognathic surgery requires more than just morphological assessment; psychosocial factors are crucial. A new psychological classification aids in patient selection for surgical orthodontics.
Area of Science:
- Orthodontics and Maxillofacial Surgery
- Psychosocial Health
Context:
- Management of surgical orthodontic patients requires specific protocols.
- Success depends on accurate indication, pre-surgical orthodontic preparation, and multidisciplinary team coordination.
Purpose:
- To explore the ideal patient profile in orthognathic surgery.
- To introduce a novel psychological classification for patient assessment.
Summary:
- Orthognathic surgery patient selection involves morphological (occlusal, aesthetic, cephalometric) and psychosocial criteria.
- A new 'psychological' classification is proposed to aid in patient selection.
- This classification serves as a decision-making tool for surgical orthodontic patient 'casting'.
Impact:
- Provides a framework for better patient selection in orthognathic surgery.
- Establishes a basis for future research into psychosocial factors in surgical orthodontics.
- Enhances the multidisciplinary approach to managing complex orthodontic cases.
