Abstract

Introduction: Angle classification is a classification commonly used for malocclusion in the field of orthodontics. Mandibular prognation is one of the skeletal features of Class III dentoskeletal classification or defined as mesiocclusion. The prevalence of class III dentoskeletal occurrence in Asian populations is much higher than Caucasian racial populations. Aim of research is to obtain data of Orthognathic surgery case overview in patients with class III dentoskeletal angle classification Methods: Type of research is using a retrospective descriptive method by taking secondary data from medical record cards of orthognathic surgery cases. The population in this study were all medical record data of patients undergoing orthognathic surgical treatment in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department of RSUP Dr. Hasan Sadikin 2006-2011 period. The sample in this study is medical record data of patients with Class III dentoskeletal classification performed orthognathic surgery in the period 2006-2011. then classified by year of surgery, sex, age, Angle classification, state of anterior open bite, location of surgery, and technique used in surgery. Result: 2% of orthognathic surgical patients have a Class III Angle relationship and only 8% of orthognathic surgical patients have a Class II Angle relation. Based on the anterior tooth overbite relation in patients with an Angle class III relationship, there are 16 patients who have an open bite relation on the anterior teeth. Only 8 patients from Angle III class relationships were treated with orthognathy without an anterior open bite relation.Conclusion: In the period 2006-2011, the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Dr. Hasan Sadikin handled 26 orthognathic surgical patients, The most orthognathic surgical patients were in the age group of 21-25 years and the difference in the number of male and female patients was only small, Cases of orthognathic surgery in patients with class dentoskeletal Angle classification III is the most handled case by the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Dr. Hasan Sadikin Bandung in the period 2006-2011 reached 92.31% of all orthognathic surgery cases or 24 cases. (4) Most orthognathic surgical patients with Class III dentoskeletal classification have an anterior open bite relation. The most commonly performed surgical techniques for patients with Class III dentoskeletal classification are bimaxillary surgical techniques with a combination of Le Fort 1 osteotomy techniques on the maxilla and sagittal split osteotomy and genioplasty of the mandible.

Abstract

Background: Pain and swelling are common inflammatory complications following mandibular third molar surgery. Corticosteroids are widely used to control postoperative inflammation and improve patient comfort. However, evidence regarding the effectiveness of low-dose postoperative methylprednisolone, particularly at an 8 mg dose, remains limited, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an 8 mg dose of methylprednisolone on postoperative pain intensity and facial swelling following surgery. Methods: This study employed a parallel-group, two-arm randomized controlled trial design conducted in accordance with the CONSORT guidelines. A total of 30 patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (8 mg methylprednisolone) or the control group (standard care), with 15 participants in each group. The independent variable was methylprednisolone administration, while the dependent variables included pain intensity measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and facial swelling. Outcome assessments were performed on postoperative days 1, 3, and 7. Statistical analyses were used for independent t-tests. Results: Pain intensity was lower in the methylprednisolone group than in the control group at all postoperative time points, with large between-group effect sizes observed on day 1 (p = 0.003; Cohen’s d = 1.42), day 3 (p = 0.020; Cohen’s d = 1.36), and day 7 (p = 0.007; Cohen’s d = 1.18). Facial swelling also differed between groups, showing a lower degree of swelling in the methylprednisolone group during postoperative days 1–3 (p = 0.029; Cohen’s d = 0.98) and days 3–7 (p = 0.002; Cohen’s d = 0.87), indicating consistently large effects across outcomes. Conclusion: Low-dose methylprednisolone is statistically and clinically effective in reducing postoperative pain and swelling following surgery and may be integrated as a safe and cost-effective adjuvant therapy in postoperative dental care.
