Abstract | Objective: This study is intended to review data pertaining to patient satisfaction following orthognathic surgery through a systematic literature survey. Methods and materials: An electronic search was done on Medline, EMBASE and CENTRAL databases. The inclusion criteria considered were as follows: (1) assessment of patients' satisfaction, (2) one-stage orthognathic surgery, and (3) follow-up period of 8 weeks or more in English literature. The exclusion criteria considered were as follows: (1) presence of craniofacial syndromes, cleft lip and palate or traumatic injuries, (2) previous facial surgery, and (3) psychological problems before surgery. The data were extracted and analyzed under three categories: function, esthetics and overall satisfaction. Results: Eighteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Esthetic and function were improved in majority of patients; however, it was not possible to assess the overall satisfaction levels statistically. Overall satisfaction analysis revealed that 70-87% of patients were satisfied, while nearly 15% of patients were dissatisfied with the treatment outcome. Conclusion: Most of the patients were satisfied with the surgical outcome. However, satisfaction seemed to be multifactorial and it was not possible to predict satisfaction prior to the surgery. |
