ABSTRACT:
Orthognathic Surgery has a tremendous input on patients life as it changes the facial appearance as well as the quality of their life. The aim of the presentation is to share our clinical experience in issues on case selection and patient management, on esthetic changes related to jaw movements, specific side effects that occur on facial esthetics due to the skeletal changes, on limitations of the 3D movements and how we manage and finally what we learned from the past experience, why and how we proceed today.
