Common facial injuries treated include:
Understanding Facial Injuries and Treatment
Facial trauma can result from many situations, including automobile accidents, falls, sports injuries, workplace incidents, and other forms of impact. Injuries may involve the soft tissues, facial bones, teeth, or sensitive structures such as the eyes, facial nerves, and salivary glands.
Treatment depends on the type and severity of the injury, to restore proper function while preserving facial appearance.
Precise Repair With Cosmetic Results in Mind
Soft tissue injuries, such as facial cuts and lacerations, require careful evaluation and repair. Dr. Humes focuses on restoring damaged areas while considering important structures, including facial nerves, salivary glands, and ducts. His specialized training allows him to provide precise treatment while minimizing visible scarring whenever possible.
Advanced Treatment for Facial Fractures
Facial fractures require careful planning based on the injury's location and severity. Unlike other areas of the body, facial bones require specialized techniques to stabilize and restore proper alignment.
Depending on the injury, treatment may include stabilization methods, jaw wiring, or small plates and screws using rigid fixation techniques. These modern approaches help promote healing while allowing many patients to return to normal function more quickly.
Dr. Humes focuses on providing thorough and predictable fracture treatment while preserving facial aesthetics. When possible, surgical access is designed to minimize incisions and reduce visible scarring.
Restoring Damaged Teeth and Supporting Structures
Dental injuries often require immediate attention to protect surrounding tissues and improve the chances of saving damaged teeth. Oral surgeons may treat injuries involving supporting bone, displaced teeth, or teeth that have been knocked out.
When a tooth is completely displaced, seeking professional care as quickly as possible can improve the chances of successful replantation. Avoid cleaning or scrubbing the tooth, as important tissues needed for reattachment may still be present.
For teeth that cannot be saved, modern solutions such as dental implants may help restore function and appearance.
