Abstract

Nowadays, Mandibular Reduction for the aesthetic purpose is getting more popular in the South East Asia region. This is because the ideal of beauty for Asian woman is an oval-shaped face. However, the facial bone structure of South East Asian woman including Thai woman is square-shaped, resulting from wide mandibles. Thanks to the modern development of surgical technique, the result of the mandibular reduction is more satisfactory and is able to reach the patient’s expectation. The side effect of the mandibular surgery is also very few with the only short recovery period.

However, Intra-Operative nursing care for patients underwent mandibular reduction is quite specific and complicated. The patients would need a special and sophisticated nursing care from the preoperative period to postoperative period in order to acquire a satisfying result and minimize recovery period

All in all, surgical nursing care is vital for the patients who undergo mandibular reduction and is one of the most critical factors contributing to the achievement of the surgery.
