| Abstract | PURPOSE: Orthognathic surgery is an efficient procedure for cosmetic and functional aims. However, when functional improvement is achieved by mandibular or maxillary operations, additional esthetic corrections may be imperative for some patients. This study aims to introduce our primary practice of simultaneous facial bone contouring and orthognathic surgery for esthetic reasons. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Ten patients with dentofacial deformities as well as a prominent angle, asymmetric deformities, or a high zygoma and zygomatic arch were recruited from West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University (Chengdu, China), between January 1, 2014, and July 31, 2015. Traditional orthognathic surgical procedures such as bilateral sagittal split osteotomy and Le Fort I osteotomy combined with facial osteoplasty including mandibular angle ostectomy, outer cortex ostectomy of the mandibular angle, and zygoma and zygomatic arch reduction were performed. Radiographs and medical photographs were taken before and after surgery to compare the effectiveness of the combined use of facial osteoplasty and orthognathic surgery. RESULTS: All patients had an uneventful postoperative recovery, with no signs of infection, jaw displacement, or osteonecrosis. Radiographs taken 1 week after surgery and pictures of the facial profile and occlusion taken 6 months after surgery showed satisfactory esthetic outcomes. All patients were satisfied with the functional and cosmetic results. CONCLUSIONS: This study indicated the clinical feasibility of simultaneous facial bone contouring and orthognathic surgery for the treatment of dentofacial deformities. Simultaneous facial bone contouring seems to be an alternative procedure in addition to conventional orthognathic surgery for cosmetic aims in certain patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
