title: What information should we give to our orthognathic patients?
abstract: In 2002, whilst the author was an orthodontic registrar, she underwent a bimaxillary osteotomy to correct her class III malocclusion. This therefore gives her a unique perspective into the information she believes prospective patients undergoing similar procedures would find helpful and the choices of format to deliver that advice.
