Abstract
Orthognathic surgery is performed to alter the shape of the jaws to improve dental occlusion stability, temporomandibular joint function and patient's facial proportions. Patients undergoing orthognathic surgery show considerable changes in both hard and soft tissues. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the changes in lip morphology after single VY closure and double VY closure in lefort I osteotomy. 20 patients were included in this study in which 12 were females and 8 were males. Vermilion length was measured in midline and lateral lip region. The results showed a beneficial effect using the technique of DVY closure.
