Over its three-year span, the programme delivered 34 expertly curated sessions, drawing a cumulative live attendance of over 3000 participants and maintaining consistently high engagement. With a focus on innovation, accessibility, and curriculum alignment, the programme covered a wide range of topics. Stand out sessions, such as 'Orbital Trauma' and the 'Head and Neck Cancer Study Day' achieved record attendance of 148 and 181 participants, respectively, highlighting the programme's relevance and appeal. Feedback underscored the programme's success, with attendees rating session organisation an average of 4.7 out of 5 and its impact on clinical practice and educational progress 4.5 out of 5. Interactive elements, such as quizzes and dynamic post-session discussions, encouraged active engagement and reinforced learning. A comprehensive online repository further amplified the programme's reach, allowing participants to revisit recorded sessions aligned with the OMFS curriculum and supporting FRCS exam (Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons - Exit Exam) preparation. The seamless transition of FlexFacs to NHS England in July 2024 ensures its enduring influence on OMFS education. By addressing gaps in traditional training and equipping professionals through flexible, high-quality resources, the programme has established itself as a model for surgical education. Its legacy extends beyond its immediate achievements, offering a potential blueprint for future virtual learning initiatives across all surgical specialties.","PeriodicalId":55318,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143755691","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cone beam computed tomography may be a good choice for detecting sialoliths because it is more sensitive than sonography. A practitioner should collect precise information about the stone in question, which includes the exact location of the calculus, its size and volume, and the number of calculi in a given case. For submandibular calculi, the orientation of the stone's location against the gonion and the inferior edge of the mandible creates the system of coordinates almost in a geographical fashion. The next step is management planning, and a proper surgical approach may be selected from a comprehensive list of available techniques. If the sialoendoscopic removal of calculi via ducts is impossible, endoscopy-assisted, ultrasound (US)-guided, or unassisted intraoral surgery, extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL), a combination of the ESWL with the sialoendoscopy, and endoscopy-assisted ductal stretching procedure are our options. Measures must be taken to avoid or minimise postsurgical complications. The development of our knowledge, skills, diagnostic arsenal, and surgical approaches to sialolithiasis cases over the last hundred years is impressive. However, there is still room for further improvement. Some problems in diagnostics, calculus assessment, and surgical approaches require additional research.","PeriodicalId":55318,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143744439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Also, previous experience with orthodontic treatment was evaluated for all patients. Patients who underwent single-jaw mandibular setback surgery and Le Fort I osteotomies had the most pronounced change in global OQLQ scores. Oral function was significantly improved in both groups, and dentofacial aesthetics and awareness of dentofacial deformity was significantly improved in the mandibular setback group. The effect did not significantly change over time for any of the groups. The extent of orthodontic treatment in the preoperative stage did not significantly alter QoL scores. Orthognathic surgery improved self-reported quality of life in a Norwegian population. The type of dentofacial deformity and surgical procedure differed in some aspects, but the global OQLQ scores remained consistent.","PeriodicalId":55318,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143712218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to compare the economic and emotional implications of DO versus OS at an Indian institute. A total of 20 patients who underwent maxillary DO were compared with 20 patients who underwent orthognathic Le Fort I osteotomy. Sourced from the GSR Institute of Craniofacial Surgery database, patients completed a telephone questionnaire, via a translator, which investigated: return travel costs to hospital, length of hospital stay, Likert scales gauging mood and impact on daily life before, during, and after treatment. There was a marked increased mean length of hospital stay associated with rigid external device (RED) in comparison with OS by 70.5%. This is also associated with a greater mean total cost of hospital stay per patient, also by 70.5%. The mean number of visits to hospital postoperatively was over twice the number of visits for RED in comparison with OS, associated with a staggering 859.9% increase in financial burden on RED patients compared with OS with regards to mean total return travel costs to hospital. There was a 36.8% percentage change in impact on daily life scores for RED patients compared with 25.0% percentage change associated with OS. While DO appears advantageous, its economic drawbacks emphasise the necessity for a comprehensive evaluation of clinical and economic outcomes in low-resource settings. Limitations included challenges due to various regional languages and absence of pre-existing maxillary deficiency data.","PeriodicalId":55318,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143665418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
