Early Effects of Orthognathic Surgery on Periodontal Phenotype: A 6-Month Prospective Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation
The goal of this observational study is to learn how the health and thickness of the gums and supporting bone around the teeth change over 6 months in adults having jaw surgery to correct the bite. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Do gum and tooth-support measurements change from before surgery to 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery?
* Do CT scan-based measurements of the tooth-supporting bone change over the same time period?
Participants will:
* Have a gum check-up (periodontal examination) before surgery and at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery.
* Have CT scan-based measurements (CBCT) taken at the same time points for study assessment.
