This study aims to investigate pain management and satisfaction following orthognathic surgery, which is a type of surgery that corrects jaw and facial bone issues. This type of surgery can result in significant post-operative pain for participants, and the goal of this study is to find a way to manage this pain in a more effective and safe manner. The study will focus on the use of opioid pain medication and will compare two groups: one group will receive a standardized prescription plan. In contrast, the other group will receive a personalized prescription with a plan to taper the opioid medication. In the end, any unused opioid will be compared at the end of the 7-day post-discharge period between the two groups. This is important because excessive opioid prescription can either be diverted to the community or can be misused leading to opioid use disorders. Data will be collected from pre-surgery appointments, during the surgery and hospital stay, and follow-up appointments. The data collected will include participants' demographics, medical history, type of surgery, and information about the pain medication used. The study hypothesizes that the personalized prescription plan will result in less unused medication and higher satisfaction with pain management compared to the standardized prescription plan. The study will also stratify the participants into single-jaw surgery and double-jaw surgery groups to evaluate if any differences in the outcomes are observed. This study will help to provide guidance for future pain management practices for participants undergoing orthognathic surgery. Furthermore, this study will also benefit society by providing insights into addressing the opioid crisis that is currently affecting many communities across North America.
The unstable condylar position in the glenoid fossa is a critical problem for postsurgical instability after mandibular advancement with subsequent mandibular relapse. The habitual forward occlusion in class II patients creates unstable condyle to glenoid fossa relationship making it hard for clinicians to determine the amount of mandibular advancement. Splint therapy is considered as a preoperative reversible nonsurgical condylar repositioning option in addition to its adjunctive effect for pain relief in TMJ symptomatic patients. To minimize this relapse, presurgical functional appliance therapy has been proposed and has shown promising outcomes.
ABSTRACT OBJECTIVES: To study the correlation between pharyngeal airway volume (PAV), the clinical indicators of obstructive sleep apnea (AHI, ESS), and the impact of orthognathic surgery on them. METHODS: A prospective, descriptive, unicentric study carried out by a multidisciplinary team to evaluate the following parameters in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery at Maxillofacial institute Teknon medical center. During the study period: - Record of the type, magnitude and direction of surgical movements of the maxillofacial complex made during the surgery (Day 0-Month 1). - Assessment of PAS/PAV stability (relapse) at short term (1 month). 3D PAV assessment by cranial voxel-based superimposition protocol before and one month and 12 months after orthognathic surgery. - Household polysomnography (PSG) registry/ apnea-hypopnea index (Day 0, Month 1 and Month 12). (AHI evaluation bu neurophysiologist) - Assessment of the clinical indicators of obstructive sleep apnea at day 0, month 1 and month 12:, blood pressure (mm Hg) , and daytime hypersomnia test (Epworth sleepiness scale, ESS) (Day 0, Month 1 and Month 12). - Record of body mass index (BMI) (cm/Kg2) Main Objective: • Evaluate the impact of orthognathic surgery (bimaxillary or monomaxillary) and its movements on the PAV and the clinical indicators of OSA. Specific objectives: • Interrelate the degree of dentofacial deformity with the IAH. - Study the potential correlation between the volume of the VAS and the IAH. - Correlate the type, direction and magnitude of the surgical movements of the maxillofacial complex with PAV/PAS increase Correlate the type, direction and magnitude of the surgical movements of the maxillofacial complex with the cure of OSA (household PSG AHI assessment) and the following clinical indicators of OSA: diurnal hypersomnia test (ESD, ESS). - Evaluate negative effects of either maxillary or mandibular surgical movements in PAS/PAV increase and the cures of OSA. Evaluate negative effects of either maxillary or mandibular surgical movements in the improvement of the clinical symptoms and the cure of OSA. - To study the possible effect of surgical complications on PAS/PAV stability at long term and the clinical symptoms of OSA. - Demonstrate that maxillomandibular surgery is a defined, predictable and a definitive cure for OSA. - Demonstrate that skeletal, linear, and cross-sectional volume parameters remain stable at long-term. - Demonstrate that AHI and OSA-related parameters stay stable at long term after mono- or bimaxillary surgery. Hypothesis - H1a: Maxillomandibular advancement (orthognathic surgery) does correlate with the volume of the upper airway, at both short or long term. - H2a: Maxillomandibular advancement (orthognathic surgery) does correlate with the clinical indicators of obstructive sleep apnea, at both short or long term.
Postural balance on both feet, characteristic of the human species, is possible by the tension of muscle of the whole body from toes to head. Body position depends on many inputs such as vision, vestibule, skin receptors, states of muscle tension receptors. Information is integrated in a complex nervous system via the ascending and descending pathways. The information is then analyzed to provide feedback on body position. Any variation of body position, induces a variation of the center of pressure. Impaired body positioncan cause pain (back pain, neck pain) or long-term deformation (including scoliosis or kyphosis). Maxillas position, via the activity of masseter and temporal muscles, acts on the muscle chain that controls posture. Incorrect positioning of the jaw in the three directions of space seems to create an asymmetric masticatory muscles activity and thus destabilize the muscle chain responsible for body position. Repositioning maxillas by orthognathic surgery could alter the body posture via changing the activity of the masticatory muscles. However, nowadays no clear link has been demonstrated between maxillas repositioning and body posture modification. The purpose of this study is to highlight the link between posture and jaws position, by analyzing the variation of the masticatory muscles activity and, the changes in body center of pressure before and after orthognathic surgery of jaws standardization. In this study each patient will be evaluated in terms of occlusion and body posture before surgery and after surgery (2 months) by the same protocol. The surgery will be performed in the Maxillofacial Surgery service - Pr BLANC and assessment will take place in the dentistry department - Prof. Salvadori La Timone Hospital, Marseille. The assessment includes the body posture study with a stabilometric platform (eyes open / eyes closed and with / without tooth contact), and analysis of the head orientation relative to the vertical. Electromyographic muscle masseter assessment (jaw with/without contact ) are devoted to check the evolution of the developed forces, and hand strength will be recorded using a dynamometer. All these data will be recorded for all the patients. Patients will be divided into four subgroups: (1) maxillary endognathia, (2) mandibular prognathism , (3) mandibular retrognathia and (4 mandible repositioning. Statistical analysis is aimed at validating or not the hypothesis of changes in body posture caused by surgical maxillas repositioning.
