This study aimed to evaluate changes of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) following maxillomandibular advancement surgery (MMA), long-term postoperative skeletal relapse, and progressive condylar resorption (PCR) development. Preoperative and postoperative cone beam computed tomography(2 weeks, 5 years) of 50 patients (33 female, 17 male; mean age 25.6 years) were assessed three-dimensionally.

Background And Objectives: Patients with dentofacial deformity (DFD) requiring orthognathic treatment have poor aesthetics, jaw function and psychological well-being, which potentially affect the quality of life. This study aimed to investigate the health-related general, oral and orthognathic quality of life, jaw function and sleep-disordered breathing at different stages of orthognathic surgical treatment.

Methods: A total of 120 consecutive patients with DFD were recruited and grouped as pre-orthodontic treatment (group 1), pre-surgery (group 2), 4 months post-surgery (group 3), 24 months post-surgery (group 4) and in addition 30 controls without DFD (group 0).

Background And Objective: Patients with dentofacial deformity often present with impaired masticatory function, orofacial pain and temporomandibular disorders (TMD). This study investigates the relationship between TMD, pain, jaw and masticatory function at different stages of orthognathic surgical (OS) treatment.

Methods: A total of 120 OS patients were prospectively recruited and grouped as pre-orthodontic (group 1), pre-surgery (group 2), 4-month post-surgery (group 3), 24-month post-surgery (group 4), in addition to 30 controls (group 0).

The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate pharyngeal airway (PA) changes after bimaxillary surgery (BMS). Preoperative, immediate- and 5-year postoperative cone-beam computed tomography images of subjects who underwent BMS were assessed. The primary outcome variable was the PA volume.

The assessment of the stability of orthognathic surgery is often time-consuming, relies on manual re-identification of anatomical landmarks, and has been based on short-term follow-up. The purpose of this study was to propose and validate a semi-automated approach for three-dimensional (3D) assessment of the long-term stability of segmental bimaxillary surgery. The approach was developed and validated using cone beam computed tomography scans obtained at 2 weeks and 2 years postoperative.
