Le Fort fractures are severe facial injuries that affect the maxillary bone and surrounding structures such as the nose and eye sockets. These fractures are classified into three main types: Le Fort I, Le Fort II, and Le Fort III, each with varying degrees of severity and clinical implications. Rehabilitating Le Fort fractures requires a multidisciplinary approach and may involve the use of a wide range of materials and techniques. Materials used in the rehabilitation of these fractures include titanium plates and screws for surgical fixation of the fractures, bone grafts to support healing and restore bone structure, as well as biocompatible materials to minimize adverse reactions. Additionally, the rehabilitation process may involve physical and occupational therapy to restore function and mobility of the maxilla and other associated structures. Close monitoring of recovery and management of complications may also be necessary to ensure complete recovery and optimal function of the affected structures. This review proposes a review of Le Fort fractures and the materials used in their rehabilitation, highlighting the importance of an integrated approach in managing these complex traumatic injuries.
