Instead of the conventional orthodontics-first protocol, the surgery-first orthognathic approach (SFOA) aims to shorten overall treatment time, improve early facial aesthetics, increase patient satisfaction, and accelerate orthodontic tooth movement after skeletal correction . Participants learned about the rationale, planning strategies, indications, contraindications, advantages, limitations and case-based outcomes associated with this evolving orthosurgical protocol.
