Abstract

Orthognathic surgery is a aesthetic as well as functional correction surgery of jaw and face. Since it is an elective procedure it comes with its due benefits and complications. There should be a clear distinction between malpractics and complications. The complications could be foreseen if the cause is detected early and adequate treatment provided. The role of oral and maxillofacial surgeons comes into play with a proper understanding of the types, causes and treatment of complications and should deliver this information to patients who develop these complications.
