Özet

Patients undergoing orthognathic surgery need quantitative follow-up of many parameters. Standardization and recording of data should be done with minimal paper work and time. The patient follow-up form presented enabled the authors' clinic to increase the quality of follow-up. The form consists of more than 20 variables that are routinely evaluated in all patients undergoing orthognathic surgery. It facilitates the cross-evaluation of many variables easily and more accurately. This type of accurate recording would also be beneficial in the event of medico-legal issues. The authors believe this form would be helpful to clinics that have a large number of patients undergoing orthognathic surgery.
