Aesthetic Surgery to Augment Orthognathic Surgery

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to discuss some of the more commonly performed aesthetic surgical procedures to augment the final outcome of orthognathic surgery. These procedures are divided into two categories: those that can safely and predictably be performed simultaneously with orthognathic surgery and those that ideally should be performed independently of orthognathic surgery. This latter category also includes camouflage surgery, which includes aesthetic surgical procedures that are performed to camouflage or mask underlying dentofacial deformities in patients who, for various reasons, are not candidates for traditional orthognathic surgery or prefer a "smaller" operation. Camouflage surgery may be an attractive alternative for this group of patients because it is usually a much smaller operation and has a shorter recovery period.
