What Can Facial Trauma Surgery Do For You?
Facial trauma can have a multitude of causes. Sports injuries, falls, motor vehicle accidents, assault and work-related accidents account for the majority of maxillofacial injuries. Dr. McLain’s goals in the treatment of facial trauma include:
- Promoting rapid bone healing
- Returning normal speech and eye, jaw and nasal function
- Achieving desirable facial and dental aesthetic results
How Does Facial Trauma Surgery Work?
The effects of trauma will differ with each patient and with the severity of the injury. Therefore, the components of each trauma surgery performed by Dr. McLain will vary. These can include resetting broken bones, reconstructing facial or oral structure, and replacing missing teeth by installing dental implants.
Dr. McLain may also perform cosmetic surgery to improve your appearance in response to injury.
