Facial trauma refers to injuries affecting the face, jaws, teeth, and facial bones, often caused by road accidents, falls, sports injuries, workplace accidents, or assaults. These injuries may involve fractured jaw bones, broken facial bones, damaged teeth, cuts, swelling, or difficulty in opening the mouth.

At T32 Dental and Maxillofacial Clinic, facial trauma is managed with a systematic and emergency-focused approach. Proper evaluation, imaging, and early treatment are essential to restore facial form, function, and appearance.

Management of Facial Trauma

Treatment depends on the severity of injury and may include:

• Non-surgical management such as medications, wound care, splinting, and observation for minor fractures and soft tissue injuries
• Surgical management for displaced jaw or facial bone fractures, using modern fixation techniques to restore normal bite, facial symmetry, and function
• Dental trauma care for broken, displaced, or avulsed teeth
• Scar-minimizing wound closure with attention to facial aesthetics

Our goal is to provide timely, precise, and compassionate care, ensuring safe healing, minimal scarring, and long-term stability.
