Kurzfassung:
Several orthognathic procedures have been applied to correct skeletal anterior open bites (SAOB). Which method is most stable has been debated and no consensus has been reached and there is no conclusive evidence for clinicians to use. Objective To analyse whether maxillary, mandibular, or bimaxillary surgery provides a better stability. Materials and methods A systematic search was conducted up to December 2020 using PubMed, EMBASE, Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane CENTRAL, and Google Scholar. We made direct comparisons among the controlled trials and also made indirect comparisons via subgroup analysis on the aspects of occlusional, skeletal, and dento-alveolar stability to assess the overall stability of each method. Results Finally 16 cohort studies were identified. At the occlusional level, pooled change in overbite was 0.21 mm in maxillary surgery, 0.37 mm in bimaxillary surgery, and −0.32 mm in mandibular surgery. At the skeletal level, pooled sella–nasion–Point A angle (SNA) was −0.12 degrees in bimaxillary surgery, −0.37 degrees in maxillary surgery and −0.20 degrees in mandibular surgery. The sella–nasion to palatal plane angle (SNPP) relapsed to a statistically significant degree in all samples received single maxillary surgery. Relapse of the sella–nasion–Point B angle (SNB) was 0.47 degrees in mandibular setback, −1.8 degrees in mandibular advancement, and −0.48 degrees in maxillary surgery. The Sella–Nasion to mandibular plane angle (SNMP) relapsed more in procedures involving bilateral sagittal split osteotomy than in other procedures. As for dento-alveolar changes, intrusion of molars and extrusion of incisors took place in most patients. Conclusions Bimaxillary surgery produced the most beneficial post-operative increase in overbite, maxillary surgery led to a lesser but still positive overbite change, and mandibular surgery correlated with some extent of relapse. Skeletally, bimaxillary surgery was more stable than maxillary surgery at both SNA and SNPP; SNB was more stable in mandibular setback than advancement; and SNMP was unstable in both mandibular and bimaxillary surgeries versus maxillary surgery with comparable surgical changes. Dento-alveolar compensation helped maintain a positive overbite. Registration number CRD42020198088.
