Facial Trauma

In the event of a traumatic incident, whether it be a motor vehicle accident, a sports injury, or a fall, the consequences can be both physically and emotionally devastating. Facial trauma, in particular, can have a significant impact on an individual's life, affecting not just their physical health but also their psychological well-being. At the Maxillofacial Oral Surgery and Implant Center (MOSAIC), we understand the severity of these incidents and offer expert care and treatment in managing facial trauma.

Facial trauma encompasses any injury to the mouth, face, or jaws. It can result in soft tissue injuries, such as lacerations or burns, bone injuries, such as fractures, or injuries to special regions, such as the eyes, facial nerves, or salivary glands.

Assessment and Treatment of Facial Trauma

When you experience facial trauma, the first step is a comprehensive evaluation. This includes a detailed examination of your facial structures and an understanding of the incident that caused the injury. It is critical to determine the extent of the trauma, which can sometimes extend beyond what is immediately visible.

At MOSAIC, Dr. Noble and his team employ the latest diagnostic tools to accurately assess the extent of the injury. They specialize in managing various forms of facial trauma, including fractures of the facial bones (cheek, nose, or eye socket), fractures of the upper and lower jaws, and soft tissue injuries of the face and mouth.

Facial trauma often requires immediate treatment, and this is where the expertise of a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon like Dr. Noble is crucial. With his extensive training in managing facial trauma, he is adept at restoring function and aesthetics to the face.

Treatment depends on the type and severity of the injury and could range from minor outpatient procedures to more complex surgical interventions. At MOSAIC, we provide comprehensive treatment plans tailored to the individual needs of our patients. We prioritize not just the physical healing of our patients but also their emotional recovery.
