To evaluate the readmission rate after orthognathic surgery and identify associated risk factors....
Retrospective analysis of patients who underwent orthognathic surgery and had an unexpected hospital admission, with or without return to the operating room (OR), within the first postoperative year. ...
There were 701 patients included in the study. The readmission rate was 9.70%. Twelve patients were managed non-surgically, and 56 patients required an OR procedure. The most common reason for readmis...
Only ASA classification and duration of initial hospitalization were significant risk factors for readmission of patients within the first postoperative year after orthognathic surgery....
In orthognathic surgery, it is well known that maxillary osteotomies and displacements sometimes affect auditory function. Thus, this study examined the relationship between the direction of maxillary...
Twenty consecutive patients underwent Le Fort I maxillary osteotomy using advancement, impaction, setback, or a combination of these procedures. The direction of movement and incidence of otalgia were...
Pure-tone average evaluation based on horizontal or vertical movements did not show significant differences, although vertical movements resulted in fewer changes in the hearing threshold. Specificall...
The risk of minor changes in hearing function is probable during the first week after orthognathic surgery; however, these negative changes either completely disappear or remain negligible....
Oral hygiene represents a fundamental element with regard to outcomes in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Both basic hygiene that the patient must perform daily at home and obviously professional hygie...
Patients undergoing orthognathic surgery in our Department of Maxillofacial Surgery in Ancona, in a total number of 137 in the period studied (2016-2021), were divided into 2 groups: period 1, (2016-2...
The main goal of the study authors set is to evaluate the effective impact of professional oral hygiene in the pre and postoperative management of patients undergoing orthognathic surgery, taking into...
Bibliometric analyses provide information on the effectiveness, performance, trends, and various other characteristics of research by using mathematical and statistical analysis methods for data relat...
In this bibliometric analysis study, orthognathic surgery publications from 1980 to 2022 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. The independent variables were co-citations, w...
A total of 7,135 publications and 75,822 references were included in the analysis, and the annual growth rate of publications was 9.52%. The co-citation clustering analysis revealed that the orthognat...
Bibliometric analysis methods were used to evaluate the 40-year history of the orthognathic surgery literature. The analysis identified the most influential publications, the topics in which the liter...
The digital articulation of dental models is gradually replacing the conventional physical approach for occlusal prediction planning. This study was performed to compare the accuracy and reproducibili...
Bone nonunion is extensively studied in the orthopedic literature, but the knowledge in oral and maxillofacial surgery, specifically orthognathic surgery, is scarce. Since this complication has a sign...
To report the characteristics of patients presenting with bone nonunion after orthognathic surgery....
This is a retrospective case-series study on subjects who underwent orthognathic surgery between 2011 and 2021 and developed nonunion. Inclusion criteria were mobility at the site of the osteotomy and...
The outcome variable was bone healing after nonunion care....
Demographics (age, sex), medical/dental comorbidities, type of surgery (type of fixation, bone grafts, Botox injection), amplitude of movements, nonunion treatment....
Descriptive statistics were computed for each study variable....
The sample was composed of 15 patients (11 females, mean age 40.4 years old) with nonunion (maxilla: 8 cases, mandible: 7 cases) out of 2036 patients who underwent orthognathic surgery during the peri...
Curettage with or without grafting appears to be a good strategy for the cure of nonunion. Bruxism may be a risk factor (60% of patients were bruxers in this study)....
Skeletal dentofacial asymmetry decreases patient's attractiveness by deteriorating symmetry of facial appearance which is of great significance to individuals. Surgery-first orthognathic approach mani...
Thirty-four patients who received orthognathic surgery in a surgery-first fashion were included. Based on three-dimensional CT reconstruction, bilateral preoperative morphological features and postope...
Asymmetric features mainly located in menton, mandibular body length, angulation between ramus and midsagittal plane (MSP), distance between gonion and MSP and so on, which were significantly restored...
Surgery-first orthognathic approach is proved to be capable of treating skeletal dentofacial asymmetry effectively and efficiently....
Autoimmune diseases result from the immune system attacking native cells and tissues due to the recognition of "self" antigens as foreign antigens. This group of disorders is associated with an increa...
This study aimed to develop a new patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) to systematically and scientifically evaluate patients' subjective feelings after orthognathic surgery....
A literature review and semi-structured interviews were conducted to construct a conceptual framework and an item pool, followed by expert and patient surveys for measure construction. We conducted a ...
The conceptual framework included four domains: psychological health, physiological health, social function, and satisfaction, and 33 items were included in the survey. Following the expert analysis, ...
A new outcome measure to evaluate patients' subjective feelings after orthognathic surgery was successfully developed, and the clinical investigation demonstrated that the PROM had satisfactory feasib...
The novel PROM provides a systematic and scientific way to evaluate the patient's subjective feelings to help surgeons obtain complete patient-reported information after orthognathic surgery. Addition...
