“…They also struggled with lower income and job accomplishment, and are more dependent on their families compared with noncleft individuals. Some patients experienced complete ostracism from society in their entire life (Danino et al, 2005;el-Shazly et al, 2010;Versnel et al, 2010). Our results supplement those from previous studies.…”

“…This can lead to social isolation. The patients "may" not fear surgery, develop "appointment-keeping" behaviour and gain "selective hearing" (taking all information about potential benefits and filtering out all information about potential risks) during the consent process because they feel that they have nothing to lose but their physical depiction have to be improved (Marcusson et al, 2002;Noor and Musa, 2007;Oosterkamp et al, 2007;Strauss and Cassell, 2009;Versnel et al, 2010;Pitak-Arnnop et al, 2011a). Recent evidence showed that cleft patients, albeit completely treated, were incurred by a delay in education and marriage.…”

“…A small number of studies have investigated social anxiety and fear of negative evaluation in patients with clefts and other types of facial deformity and have generally found that patients exhibit higher levels of social anxiety than unaffected groups. 11,12 Thus, the available evidence suggests that patients who are visibly different, with either acquired or congenital dentofacial conditions, may well exhibit higher levels of social anxiety than the general population, and this may have implications for treatment outcomes.…”

42There is evidence that patients seeking orthognathic treatment may be motivated by social 43 anxiety disorder (SAD). The aim of this study was to investigate SAD in orthognathic 44 patients using the Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale (BFNES) and compare these 45 findings with the general population. This was a cross-sectional, questionnaire study 46 conducted in two parts. Firstly, a national survey was conducted to yield data for the 47 BFNES from a large, random sample of the UK general population. Secondly, orthognathic 48 patients completed the BFNES. The BFNES scores are reported in two formats; the original 49 patients with acquired facial defects, and those who had previously received orthognathic 137 treatment. As for the general population sample, patients were given the BFNES to 138 complete and demographic data, including age and gender, were also collected. 12-item scale (O-BFNES) and a shorter 8-item version (S-BFNES

“…We identified 44 instruments used in cleft lip and palate studies. After 15 ad hoc questionnaires, 7,19-26 eight generic instruments, 6,10,27-30 11 psychiatric instruments, 8,12,[31][32][33][34][35][36] and one non-English language questionnaire 37 were excluded, nine cleft lip and palate relevant measures remained. Of these, four were never validated in the cleft population.…”
