Abstract:
AIM: To review the postoperative complications of orthognathic surgery. BACKGROUND: Orthognathic surgeries are unique facial surgeries that improve facial aesthetics by establishing a proper alignment of the jaws through surgical corrections. These surgical procedures are mainly done in order to reposition the maxilla, mandible and the chin in patients whose dental deformities cannot be corrected by orthodontic correction or camouflage. OBJECTIVE:Orthognathic surgery is the standard procedure done across to correct congenital, developmental, or acquired dentofacial deformities. Performing an orthognathic surgery is said to improve facial esthetics, masticatory function of the jaws and articulation. This article reviews the postoperative stature of the most common orthognathic surgeries and their potential complications. CONCLUSION:While most patients undergo orthognathic surgery for aesthetic purposes, aesthetic improvements are most often followed by postoperative functional complications. Therefore, it is important for the patients to carefully decide whether their purpose of undergoing orthognathic surgery is on the aesthetic side or the functional side. Studies have suggested that the rate of complications following orthognathic surgery is more than 40%. Therefore, it is important for the patients to receive a detailed explanation on the complications related to these jaw surgery before they decide to undergo the procedure
