Abstract
Lip and chin numbness is a common nerve complication after orthognathic surgery and may impact to the patient’s quality of life. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of long term altered sensation in the lip and chin on a patient’s quality of life after orthognathic surgery. The study design was a cross-sectional survey on the patient aged between 18 and 70 years old who had altered sensations in the lip and chin area at least 6 months after orthognathic surgery. The demographic and operation data were collected. The impact of oral health-related quality of life was assessed by the Oral Impacts on Daily Performances Index (OIDP) related to numbness of the lip and chin area. The result showed a 34.5% incidence of lip and chin numbness after orthognathic surgery for at least 6 months. Forty-five patients were included in the study. The mean follow-up time was 34.24±17.86 months, and the mean age was 33.64±9.26 years (range 21-67). The study found that lip and chin numbness impacted to oral health related to the quality of life for 31% with mild severity. The mean overall OIDP score was 3.73±13.94. The emotional status was the most impacted by the lips and chin numbness (26.7%). The level of numbness had a significant positive correlation with the overall OIDP score (p<0.05). The study summarized that long term altered sensations in the lip and chin area after orthognathic surgery had a mild degree of impact on oral health-related quality of life and had the greatest impact on the emotional and psychological status. Therefore, long term follows up is necessary for orthognathic surgical patients.
