Trauma Services
Common Types of Facial and Dental Trauma We Treat
Traumatic injury oral surgery is a specialized branch of oral and maxillofacial surgery focused on treating injuries to the mouth, jaw, face, and surrounding structures. These injuries often result from vehicle collisions, sports impacts, falls, or workplace accidents. The goal of treatment is to restore function, reduce pain, and minimize long-term complications.
Knocked-out / Fractured Teeth
Prompt reimplantation or repair can often save the tooth. Keep the tooth moist in milk or saliva and call us immediately.
Jaw Fractures
Upper and lower jaw breaks that require surgical stabilization to restore normal bite alignment.
Facial Lacerations
Cuts inside the mouth or on the face that need careful closure to minimize scarring.
Alveolar Fractures
Fractures of the bone socket that holds the teeth in place, requiring stabilization.
When Does a Traumatic Injury Require an Oral Surgeon?
Any injury that affects the alignment, function, or integrity of the teeth or jaw warrants evaluation by an oral surgeon. Signs that specialized care is needed include:
- Difficulty opening or closing your mouth
- Pain or tenderness when biting or chewing
- Visible misalignment of the teeth or jaw
- Numbness or tingling in the lip, chin, or gums
