    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Orthognathic Surgery
    • Craniofacial Reconstruction

    Background:

    • Total maxillary surgery is frequently employed for correcting dentofacial and craniofacial deformities.
    • Advancements in surgical techniques enable independent or simultaneous repositioning of the maxilla.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the current state-of-the-art in total maxillary surgery.
    • To focus on contemporary techniques rather than historical reviews.

    Main Methods:

    • Surgical repositioning of the maxilla in superior, transverse, anterior, or posterior directions.
    • Segmentalization of the maxilla under direct vision.
    • Independent and simultaneous repositioning of maxillary segments in different spatial planes.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrates the versatility and precision of modern total maxillary surgical techniques.
    • Highlights the ability to address complex deformities through multi-directional maxillary repositioning.
    • Illustrates the application of segmentalization for customized correction.

    Conclusions:

    • Current total maxillary surgery offers sophisticated solutions for complex craniofacial and dentofacial deformities.
    • The techniques discussed provide surgeons with enhanced control over maxillary positioning.
    • This approach allows for precise and individualized treatment of a wide range of skeletal abnormalities.
