What is Facial Trauma?
Facial trauma, also known as maxillofacial trauma, refers to injuries affecting the bones, soft tissues, and organs of the face and jaw. These injuries can result from a variety of causes, including:
- Motor vehicle accidents
- Sports injuries
- Workplace accidents
- Falls
- Assaults or other violent incidents
Facial trauma requires specialized care to address not only the visible damage but also underlying functional issues such as breathing, chewing, and speaking.
