This paper demonstrates the orthodontic-surgical resolution of a patient with dentofacial deformity with severe malocclusion Class III, involving midface hypoplasia, with a modification technique of a Le Fort III osteotomy associated with Le Fort I and sagittal of the rami osteotomies. Few studies have reported the use of this technique or its modifications in non-syndromic patients. When these deformities are more severe, involving hypoplastic midface, surgical techniques not used routinely in the treatment of facial changes are required, such as the Le Fort III osteotomy or variations of this technique. The combination of orthodontic therapy and orthognathic surgery is a well-established treatment modality for the correction of dentofacial deformities. V Universidade Positivo, Curso de Odontologia.
