General anesthesia is a safe way of ensuring safety and comfort during surgery but still, there can be complications that have to be recognized. Very few Studies have reported the incidence of minor postoperative problems. In this review, I tried to present evidence-based common postoperative complications in patients undergoing maxillofacial surgery under general anesthesia and also determine the safety of general anesthesia in healthy and patients with comorbidities. A literature search for this paper was carried out by accessing PubMed, Google scholar, Web of science, and other databases.
