When you sustain a serious injury, such as knocked out teeth, damaged facial bones, or facial lacerations, you need treatment that essentially rebuild and repair your teeth and structure. Our team has the skills and experience to provide these treatments, improving your smile beauty in the process. In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa , CA, oral surgeons talk about our approach to facial trauma.
The Causes and Impacts of Facial Trauma
Facial trauma could be the result of a serious accident or injury, such as a car accident. The situation could be relatively minor, or very severe, and includes damage to the face, such as lacerations, or even missing teeth, broken facial and jaw bones, and other serious impacts on your face and mouth. Without proper treatment, the damage could alter your bite balance and increase the risk of complications like TMJ disorder, bruxism, or even issues with breathing at night. You could feel uncomfortable with the changes in your appearance, and the loss of teethe could mean the further weakening of your jaw, leading to an aged appearance.
