Today I went in depth on the topics as stated in my title:
Upper Facial Trauma:
This particular trauma is caused the majority of the times by car accidents, the implementation of seat belt harnesses has reduced the number of these injuries. Ethiologies may range among the motor vehicle accidents to sports and falls, but both the force and focus of the blow determine the extent of the injuries located to this region of the face.
Mid Facial Trauma:
Fractures of the midfacial bones are most common in trauma relating to fallas, altercations as well as motor vehicle accidents. The treatment for midfacial trauma is to provide the patient the best aesthetic and functional result with only one procedure versus multiple. Nasal fractures are also commonly encountered and an often isolated form of facial fractures.
Mandibular Trauma:
Mandible fractures are among the most comon skeletal injuries in man due to blunt or penetrating trauma. They are associated with other craniofacial, cervical and systemic trauma. Mandibular fractures destabilize the airway and may create malocclusion, joint dysfunction, pain, infection, as well as paresthesia.
