This study shows that orthognathic surgery, including mandibular osteotomies, significantly improves aesthetics and function for patients with jaw alignment issues. Over 96% of patients experienced good to very good results, highlighting surgery

Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Orthodontics
  • Plastic Surgery

Context:

  • Retrospective analysis of 31 mandibular osteotomies performed between 1987 and 1994.
  • 25 patients with isolated mandibular or combined maxillary-mandibular skeletal discrepancies were included.
  • Conditions treated included prognathism, microretrognathia, chin hypoplasia, and maxillary retrusion.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of orthognathic surgery in correcting dentofacial deformities.
  • To assess the aesthetic and functional outcomes of mandibular osteotomies.

Summary:

  • Preoperative assessment involved cephalometric analysis, dental evaluation, and cast models.
  • All patients received comprehensive orthodontic treatment before and after surgical intervention.
