61 orthognathic surgery patients were studied (39% male, 61% female). It confirms that the group of patients we see in the West of Scotland are well adjusted psychologically and that the majority seek orthognathic surgery for aesthetic reasons. The degree of satisfaction is high (87%). Dissatisfaction is not related to sex, age or procedure. Patients who were dissatisfied tend to have higher neuroticism scores on the Eysenck Personality Inventory and those patients who had had unreal expectations of post surgical pain, numbness and swelling, were likely to express dissatisfaction with the outcome in the early stages. Several patients initially expressed some dissatisfaction with the outcome after 3 months then went on to increase their score and by 12 months became satisfied with the procedure. The authors outline the importance of adequate patient preparation prior to surgery and the use of printed literature is recommended.
对61例正颌手术患者进行了研究（39%为男性，61%为女性）。这证实了我们在苏格兰西部看到的患者群体心理调适良好，且大多数人寻求正颌手术是出于审美原因。满意度较高（87%）。不满意与性别、年龄或手术方式无关。不满意的患者在艾森克人格问卷上往往有较高的神经质得分，而那些对术后疼痛、麻木和肿胀抱有不切实际期望的患者，在早期可能会对手术结果表示不满。有几位患者最初在术后3个月对结果表达了一些不满，随后评分上升，到12个月时对手术感到满意。作者概述了术前对患者进行充分准备的重要性，并建议使用印刷资料。
