Summary

This study looks at how orthognathic (jaw) surgery changes body posture and the pressure on your feet when standing or walking. Researchers will measure these changes before surgery and 6 months after in 60 people, comparing them to a similar group who did not have surgery. The goal is to understand what happens to posture after jaw surgery, which could help improve recovery care.

What this could lead to: If successful, this could help doctors better plan post-surgery rehabilitation by understanding how jaw surgery affects posture and walking.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage observational study with only 60 participants. Results may not apply to everyone, and the study measures changes but does not test a treatment.
