Facial Bone Fracture

Bardhaman Maxillofacial Clinic: Your Trusted Partner in Facial Bone Fracture Treatment.
Bardhaman Maxillofacial Clinic is a leading healthcare facility in Bardhaman, dedicated to providing comprehensive and specialized care for facial bone fractures. Our team of highly skilled and experienced maxillofacial surgeons is committed to delivering the highest quality treatment for a wide range of facial bone injuries, including
- Nasal Fractures: The most common type, often resulting in deformity, swelling, and nasal obstruction
- Maxillary Fractures: These can affect the upper jaw and may involve the orbit, leading to issues with vision and dental occlusion
- Mandibular Fractures: Injuries to the lower jaw can cause pain, difficulty in mouth movement, and misalignment of the teeth
- Zygomatic Fractures: Often referred to as cheekbone fractures, these can lead to facial asymmetry and difficulty in eye movement if the orbit is affected
- Orbital Fractures: Involve the bones surrounding the eye, potentially causing vision problems and eye movement restrictions
Why Treatment is Necessary?
- Restore Facial Structure and Function: Fractured bones can misalign, leading to difficulties in chewing, speaking, breathing, or even closing the eyes properly. Treatment aims to realign the broken bones and restore proper facial structure and function.
- Prevent Complications: Untreated facial fractures can lead to various complications, including:
- Infection: Open wounds from fractures can increase the risk of infection.
- Malunion: Bones may heal in a misaligned position, causing long-term functional and cosmetic issues.
- Neurological Damage: Fractures near nerves or blood vessels can damage these structures, leading to numbness, weakness, or vision problems.
- Improve Quality of Life: Facial fractures can significantly impact a person's self-esteem and social interactions. Prompt and effective treatment can help restore facial appearance and improve overall quality of life.
Facial bone fractures occur when the delicate bones of the face break or crack due to trauma, often resulting from accidents, falls, assaults, or sports injuries. These injuries can cause significant pain, swelling, and deformity, affecting both the appearance and function of the face.
Diagnosis and Treatment
Diagnosis typically involves a thorough clinical examination and imaging studies, such as X-rays or CT scans. Treatment may vary based on the severity and type of fracture, ranging from conservative management (for undisplaced fracture with stable occlusion) to surgical intervention for reduction and fixation with mini plates of the fractured bones.
Treatment Options
The specific treatment for a facial bone fracture depends on the severity and location of the injury. Common treatment options include:
- Non-surgical Treatment: In some cases, non-surgical treatment, such as splinting or wiring the teeth, may be sufficient to stabilize the fracture and allow it to heal.
- Surgical Treatment: For more severe fractures, surgery may be necessary to realign the broken bones and stabilize the fracture site. Surgical techniques may involve open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), where metal plates and screws are used to hold the bones in place.
- In case of composite fillings, the shade is chosen to closely mimic the appearance of the surrounding dentition.
Prompt medical attention is crucial for facial bone fractures to minimize complications and achieve optimal outcomes.

Conclusion
Facial bone fractures require prompt medical attention to prevent complications such as infection, chronic pain, difficulty chewing or swallowing, speech problems, and aesthetic concerns. Rehabilitation may include dental work, physical therapy, and surgical procedures to restore function and appearance.
If the cavity isn’t repaired, this cavity will continue to expand—eventually entering into your nerve canal. This can be excruciatingly painful. However, it can also lead to dire problems such as abscess or infection. Replacing old fillings or fixing chipped teeth can also be required. The most important reason to fix your cavity early on is to avoid a painful and costly root canal.
