Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To assess quality of life after correction of type II and III facial profile patterns through orthognathic surgery, preoperatively and up to 6 months postoperatively. Two questionnaires were used: the Brazilian adaptation of the Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ), consisting of 22 questions and a total score ranging from 0 to 88 points, and the Brazilian version of the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) quality of life questionnaire, consisting of 14 questions and a total score ranging from 0 to 56 points. In both questionnaires, the lower the score, the better the patient's quality of life. The evaluator who will calculate the scores for the questionnaires will remain blind to the study groups and time points. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To assess whether the quality of life of patients was influenced by the location of orthognathic surgery, performed through unimaxillary surgeries (only the mandible operated in facial pattern II or only the maxilla operated in facial pattern III) and bimaxillary surgeries (mandible and maxilla operated in both facial patterns). | — |
