Abstract
Abstract
Complications of orthognathic surgery are quite rare, but they cause suffering in affected individuals. The range of complications is broad and includes both hard and soft tissue. We here present a case of a fully healthy woman who underwent bimaxillary orthognathic surgery and experienced multiple complications both peri- and post-operatively. We also present the result after restorative surgery and endodontic and prosthodontic treatment resulting in a successful rehabilitation.
