The most frequent complications in orthognatic surgery

Journal Title: Medycyna Sportowa - Year 2018, Vol 34, Issue 2

Abstract

Dentition and the remaining tissues forming the oral cavity, adequate prophylaxis, as well as providing opportunities for quick specialist dental treatment have a significant impact on the condition of practically the entire human body. It equally (and even particularly) concerns professional athletes and individuals involved in high level physical activity. Professional training carried out every day (and frequently twice daily) to exhaustion of nearly the entire psycho-physical potential of the human body affects not only the physical capacity of athletes, but also their results in sports. Involvement in the above mentioned sport disciplines predisposes to conditions which should be necessarily subjected to periodic dental consultation. These include 1. extreme and contact sports, such as: skateboarding, snowboarding, mountain biking, boxing. kick boxing and other combat sports; 2. car and motorcycle riding, aerobatics, motorized water sports, body building, etc., exposure to vibration and bruxism; 3. sport disciplines involving exposure to changes in pressure, such as mountain climbing and skydiving, damage to calcified dental tissues, pulpitis, etc. The literature review, as well as practical observation, indicate that most of the individuals involved in “less dangerous” sports, such as basketball, football, handball and water polo do not use teeth protectors , which results in tooth loss and jaw sprains of fractures. The authors presents the increasingly popular method of treatment, applied in patients with complex malformations of the facial skeleton and complex orthodontic deformations, requiring surgical orthodontic procedure performance by a surgical care team.<br/><br/>
