Abstract Details

2015, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Dentistry.
Objectives: (1) To determine the psychosocial effects of a facial skeletal mal-relationship with its subsequent surgical correction in a group of patients treated using surgical orthodontics compared to a matched group of non-treated controls. (2) To conduct a preliminary assessment of the correlation between severity of malocclusion and patient’s quality of life (QoL) as measured by questionnaires evaluating depression, anxiety, satisfaction with life and oral function. Methods: This study was approved by The Ohio State University IRB. Subjects were patients presenting with facial skeletal mal-relationships whose proposed treatment plans included orthognathic surgery, or who were currently in treatment, or who had previously completed surgical correction of a facial skeletal mal-relationship.
