Patient's Satisfaction in Skeletal Class III Cases Treated With Two-Jaw Surgery Using Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire: Conventional Three-Stage Method Versus Surgery-First Approach.

摘要

After total OQLQ score of CTM group was deteriorated at T1 stage compared with T0 stage, it was improved at T2 and T3 stages (T0 = 53.9, T1 = 58.1, T2 = 23.5, and T3 = 11.6). Total OQLQ score of SFA group, however, was improved at T2 and T3 stages compared with T0 stage (T0 = 51.6, T2 =? 3.1, and T3 = 11.4; T1 was omitted.). Orthognathic QoL Questionnaire scores and their amounts of change did not show any significant difference in each domain and at each stage between 2 groups (T0, T2, T3, ΔT2 - T0, ΔT3 - T2, ΔT3 - T0; all P > 0.05). Both groups showed large change in effect size (ES) of all domains with descending order during T3 - T0: facial esthetics, oral function, social relationship, and awareness of dentofacial deformity (CTM group: -3.97, -3.40, -2.23, -1.25; SFA group: -2.83, -2.33, -1.76, -1.73) CONCLUSIONS: SFA might have an advantage over CTM group in terms of no deterioration stage of OQLQ score.
