Abstract

This review is based on the surgery-first approach for dentofacial deformity. This review has critically highlighted various promising aspects and factors associated with dentofacial deformity and can be viewed as valuable research work. In addition, this review highlights a systematic manner of surgery that can reduce the possible duration of treatment. The main findings of the review have established that the appropriate approaches to surgery can be beneficial for patients of any age group. The surgery-first approach is mainly utilized for tissue transfer as well as oral cancer as the first-line treatment. This critical review has successfully evaluated the limitations and advantageous traits of the specific surgery approach that has been outlined in this context. It has established the surgery approach as an effective measurement to reduce the time taken for treatment without compromising the patient's health. In the final phase of this review, the accuracy and appropriateness of this surgery-first approach have been effectively demonstrated.
