Orofacial and cervical myofunctional intervention programs for adults undergoing orthognathic surgery: a scoping reviewEstablishment of a new rehabilitation program using masticatory training food for jaw deformity patients.
Article in CoDAS, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeTo map orofacial and cervical myofunctional intervention programs developed for adults undergoing orthognathic surgery. RESEARCH STRATEGIES: Search of Cochrane, EMBASE, LILACS, LIVIVO, PubMed/Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science databases, as well as gray literature. SELECTION CRITERIA: The review included studies addressing therapeutic programs and myofunctional exercises and their influence on the stomatognathic system of adults undergoing orthognathic surgery, without time or language limitations. Secondary studies, populations under 18 years old, and comorbidities associated with dentofacial deformities were excluded. DATA ANALYSIS: Two reviewers extracted data comprising different topics, especially the assessment process, orofacial and cervical myofunctional intervention, and identification of intervention outcomes.
resultsFive studies were considered eligible. They were published between 2006 and 2018, with participants aged 19 to 31, predominantly females, and used postoperative guidelines consisting of isometric, isotonic, postural, and functional exercises, as well as tactile-kinesthetic and thermal stimulation, with a positive emphasis on functional improvement of the stomatognathic system.
conclusionThese studies addressed the application of orofacial myofunctional therapy after orthognathic surgery. The interventions, not yet validated, involved specific protocols of postural and functional exercises and tactile-kinesthetic and thermal stimulation. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in the performance of orofacial functions, enhanced subjective perception of oral health, and improvements in muscle tone and mobility of orofacial structures. Orofacial myofunctional therapy is an important approach in postoperative rehabilitation of the stomatognathic system.
