The review aimed to identify the most prevalent types of complications associated with orthognathic surgery and its possible risk factors. This study reviewed the literature on patients who underwent orthognathic surgery and the types of complications encountered. Intraoperative complications were identified, such as the occurrence of the bad split, bleeding, tissue injury, and postoperative variables such as impaired sensation, infection, and alterations in osteosynthesis systems.
