Brief Summary: This research is being done to determine quantitative and qualitative differences in patients' post-operative pain levels following elective orthognathic surgery after the local administration of a liposomal bupivacaine injection.

A primary objective is to determine whether using a liposomal bupivacaine injection placed locally at the conclusion of elective orthognathic surgery will decrease pain levels (as determined by VAS scores). A secondary objective is to examine whether using a long acting liposomal bupivacaine injection locally at the conclusion of elective orthognathic surgery leads to decreased use of narcotics post-operatively.
Detailed Description: Participants in Group 1 (study group) will receive ExparelTM (133 mg/10 ml - 4 ml into the maxilla, and 6 ml into the mandible). This will be injected into the soft tissue and gingiva surrounding the surgical site at the time of wound closure. Participants in Group 2 (standard of care) will receive bupivacaine 0.5% (4 ml into the maxilla, and 6 ml into the mandible) injected into the soft tissue and gingiva surrounding the surgical site at the time of wound closure.

Post-operatively, all participants will be cared for utilizing the current standard post-operative pain management protocol for all patients undergoing elective orthognathic surgery at Boston Medical Center. This consists of acetaminophen 325 mg given every 4 hours as a scheduled medication; patients also receive an additional 325 mg of acetaminophen for a reported pain level of 1-3, 5 mg of oxycodone for a reported pain level of 4-6, and 10 mg of oxycodone for a reported pain level of 7-10. All participants will be provided the same methods of postoperative pain control following their elective orthognathic surgery.
