Facial Trauma Management

Facial trauma, also known as maxillofacial trauma, is a difficult condition to treat. It usually needs the care of a skilled oral surgeon. It's virtually never something you'll want to treat with an ice pack at home! Furthermore, maxillofacial patients frequently have to wait a lengthy period for treatment.

This website has been created to help you learn more about facial trauma, including what it is and how it is treated. We aim to keep you from making serious errors that might lead to troubles in the future.  If you have recently suffered major facial injuries and are in pain as a result, you may have a dental emergency and should contact one of our clinics as soon as possible to be seen.

Examine the symmetry of your features. Inspect for bruising, swelling, and lacerations as well. Check for dislocation or telecanthus, which is a broadening and flattening of the nasal bridge. Avulsed teeth, movable teeth, and jaw malocclusion should all be checked in the mouth.
