Care for Severe Oral Injuries

Facial trauma consists of serious damage to the facial region, including areas of the gums, teeth, skull and jaw bone. Facial trauma is typically due to accidents or injuries involving falls, motor vehicles, or sports. Patients experiencing facial trauma including excessive bleeding, broken bones, a broken jaw, severe pain or swelling should immediately seek hospital or emergency room treatment. Our team of oral surgeons are on staff at many of the local hospitals in the area, including Parkview Regional Medical Center, Lutheran Hospital, St. Joseph Hospital and Dupont Hospital.  We are able to provide you facial trauma care at the hospital or in our state-of-the-art offices once the emergency has been controlled.
