    Author: Güler N, Cabbar F, Duygu G.
    Journal: Dent Traumatol; 2009 Aug; 25(4):447-50. PubMed ID: 19519858.
    Abstract:
    Injuries to the face may cause long-term defects both aesthetic and functional consequences when the treatment is delayed, inadequate or absent. The varieties of osteotomy techniques are applied to improve posttraumatic malposition of the maxillofacial bones and occlusal function. In this article, a 21-year-old female involved in a traffic accident presented a severe deformity in maxilla and treated by anterolateral osteotomy is presented.
