Maxillofacial trauma cases are associated with facial fracture and dental injuries. The trauma cases may suffer through hard tissue as well as hard tissue injuries causing anatomic deficiencies. Treatment of such cases should be planned keeping in mind the patient’s expectation both esthetically and functionally. Mostly after fracture reduction these cases result in occlusal derangement due to delayed reporting to the dental department. Hence, such patients require an extensively planned multidisciplinary approach with surgical and prosthodontic rehabilitation. The planned prostheses should replace the missing teeth along with restoration of soft tissues and occlusal rehabilitation to benefit the patient esthetically as well as functionally. In this case report we will present occlusal rehabilitation of a patient with major maxillofacial trauma.
