Maxillary Midpalatal Sagittal Fracture: A Case Report

Abstract

Objective: In this paper, we aimed to present a case management with maxillary midpalatal and mandible fractures on clinical and radiological examination under the literature’s knowledge. Case: A traffic accident history patient, clinical and radiological examination revealed maxillary midpalatal and mandibular fractures. A closed reduction approach was deemed appropriate for the patient, and the fracture was reduced with intermaxillary fixation. Conclusion: Palatal fractures are rarely seen in maxillofacial injuries. It can often be overlooked in facial traumas, cervical injuries, and sequelae are seen in untreated or incompletely treated cases. After diagnosing the fracture, it is essential to consider the fracture type and appropriate treatment methods.
