Fracture Pattern Following Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy With or Without Impacted Third A Randomized Controlled Trial Assessing Fracture Pattern, Condylar Segment Positioning, Complications and Patient-reported Outcome Measures

Fracture pattern following BSSO with or without impacted third molars

时间窗: 1 week after det BSSO surgery

The fracture pattern of the mandible following BSSO will be assessed by CBCT scans (i-CAT; Imaging Sciences International, Hatfield, PA, USA) obtained preoperatively, and one week after surgery. The CBCT will be taken by fixed exposure parameters of 120 kV, 160 × 60 mm field of view, 0.30 mm voxel size, and 8.9-second images. The fracture pattern of the mandible will be classified according to LSS by the study investigator (KBØ). The LSS consisted of 4 categories based on the path of the fracture line on the lingual side of the mandibular ramus.

Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14)

时间窗: Hand out questionnaires at the following five times, Enrolment, immediately prior to BSSO, One week after BSSO, One months after BSSO and One-year after BSSO

OHIP-14 is a validated questionnaire for assessment of OHRQoL. OHIP-14 states the patient's overall oral impairment and does not take a specific treatment site into account. OHIP-14 is organized into seven conceptual dimensions including functional limitation, physical discomfort, psychological discomfort, physical disability, psychological disability, social disability and handicap. The response format of OHIP-14 is: Very often = 4; Fairly often or many times = 3; Occasionally = 2; Hardly ever or nearly never = 1; Never/I don´t know = 0. Thus, OHIP-14 scale ranged from 0 to 56 and dimension score ranged from 0 to 8. Values of the 14 items and each dimension are summed to calculate the OHIP-14 severity score and higher scores indicate poorer OHRQoL

Condylar segment position following BSSO with or without impacted third molars

时间窗: 1 week after det BSSO surgery

The mandibular condylar segment positioning will be assessed in the sagittal, vertical, and transverse dimension by superimposing the pre- and postoperative CBCT scan using dedicated software (OnDemand3D Application, version 10; Cybermed, Seoul, South Korea). The orbital bony walls on the preoperative CBCT will be used as the reference and matched with the orbital walls on the postoperative CBCT. Pair-wise registration will be done, based on the automated detection of hundreds of virtual landmarks in the volumes, which can subsequently be manually adjusted, based on visible anatomical landmarks.To estimate the condylar displacement in all three dimensions, the intertransverse distance in millimeters between the center of the condyles is measured on the pre- and postoperative CBCT. Moreover, the distance between the mandibular condyle to the glenoid fossa is measured in the sagittal and vertical dimension. The measurements will be conducted by the study investigator (KBØ).

The Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS)

时间窗: Hand out questionnaires at the following three times, Enrolment, immediately prior to BSSO and One-year after BSSO

The level of preoperative dental anxiety is assessed by MDAS, which is a brief questionnaire rating patient's emotional reaction to an up-coming dental visit.MDAS consist of five questions in a Likert scale ranging from not anxious (scoring 1), slightly anxious (scoring 2), fairly anxious (scoring 3), very anxious (scoring 4) to extremely anxious (scoring 5) and summed together to produce a total score ranging from 5 to 25. For assessing the level of dental anxiety of each patient, response scores of all 5 questions are added. The total score ranges from 5 to 25 with cut-off scores 14 and 19 suggestive of high dental anxiety and dental phobia.

Short Form-36 (SF-36)

时间窗: Hand out questionnaires at the following five times, Enrolment, immediately prior to BSSO, One week after BSSO, One months after BSSO and One-year after BSSO

SF-36 is a questionnaire for assessment of quality of life. SF-36 is composed of eight multi-item scales (Physical Functioning, Role-Physical, Bodily Pain, General Health, Vitality, Social Functioning, Role-Emotional, Mental Health), with scores for each of these scales (or dimensions) ranging from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate higher health-related quality of life.

PROMs

时间窗: Hand out questionnaires at the following two times, One week after BSSO and One months after BSSO.

Patient´s perception of recovery will be assessed by questionnaires and visual analog scale ranging from 0 to 100 higher scores indicate bigger impact on the topic, the questions will assessing pain, number of days with sick leave, social and working isolation, physical appearance, eating and speaking ability, diet variations, sleep impairment, and discomfort as well as questions whether they would undergo similar treatment again, if needed or if they would recommend this treatment to a friend or a relative, if indicated.
