Maxillofacial Trauma

Maxillofacial trauma refers to injuries that occur in the face and jaws, often due to accidents, falls, sports injuries, or violence. This type of trauma can involve fractures of the facial bones, damage to the teeth, and injuries to soft tissues like skin and gums. Treatment typically requires a team of specialists, including oral and maxillofacial surgeons, to restore function and appearance. Proper care is crucial for healing and preventing long-term complications, such as difficulty eating, speaking, or even breathing. Advanced medical techniques help manage these injuries effectively.
