| Postoperative Facial Swelling (assessed 3 facial lines (in millimeters) for determination of difference in facial contours before and after surgery) | For the assessment of facial swelling, three facial lines (in milimeters) were measured with a digital tape on the operated side using following (4) landmarks: the external canthus of the eye, the gonion angle, the lower border of the tragus, soft pogonion and the mouth commissure Facial Lines between:
| Preoperative (on the day of surgery)- postoperative 2nd day-postoperative 7th day |
| Postoperative Trismus (difference in interincisal distance at the maximal mouth opening (in millimeters) before and after surgery) | The degree of trismus was assessed by measuring the distance between upper and lower incisal borders of the central incisors with a digital caliper. | Preoperative (on the day of surgery)- postoperative 2nd day-postoperative 7th day. |
