Corrective Upper Jaw Surgery Indications
A maxillary osteotomy (typically Le Fort I) involves surgically repositioning the upper jaw. It is performed to correct skeletal underbites, open bites, crossbites, and gummy smiles. The upper jaw bone is separated, moved forward, upward, or downward, and fixed in place with miniplates, restoring chew function and facial balance.
The Le Fort I Osteotomy Procedure
Maxillary fractures are classified into Le Fort I (horizontal fracture above teeth), Le Fort II (pyramidal fracture including the nose), and Le Fort III (complete separation of the face from the skull). Reconstructing these midface fractures requires establishing proper facial height and dental occlusion. Rigorous planning is vital to manage associated complications like cerebrospinal fluid leaks and to secure stable airway recovery.
