Facial trauma can occur due to a variety of situations, such as car accidents, falls, sports injuries, assaults, or workplace accidents. The severity of these injuries can vary, from minor dental damage to more serious wounds that affect the skin, bones, and overall face structure.
These injuries are typically classified into three categories: soft tissue, bone fractures, and specialized injuries. Dr. Alijanian must carefully evaluate and treat each type of injury to ensure proper healing and restore facial function and appearance.
Soft tissue injuries involve damage to the skin, gums, and other tissues in the face, often resulting from cuts, bruises, or abrasions. These injuries can cause swelling, pain, and visible scarring, which may require careful treatment to promote healing and reduce long-term effects.
Facial bone fractures are treated with techniques tailored to the specific location, severity, and individual health factors, though they don’t require casts like other bone fractures. Depending on the fracture, stabilization methods can include wiring the jaws or employing rigid fixation with small plates and screws, which helps speed up healing without the need for prolonged jaw wiring.
Tooth injuries, such as fractures or displacements, are common and often require a multidisciplinary approach for optimal recovery. To address damage to the supporting bone and replant teeth that have been knocked out or moved out of place, Dr. Alijanian will typically use stabilization techniques like splinting, wiring, or bonding.
If a tooth is knocked out, it’s crucial to keep it in a solution like milk or saline and get to our Walnut Creek, CA, practice as soon as possible for replantation. This ensures the tooth’s ligaments are intact for successful reinsertion.
