Introduction

Maxillary condyle fractures account for about 26-40% of all mandibular fractures. These fractures are associated with other injuries that have their own pathology, where we can find injuries in the facial nerve, injuries in the cervical spine, injuries in the external auditory canal, and obstruction of the internal carotid artery. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the anatomy and physiology of the masticatory system is necessary. to develop a treatment plan.
