“…In our study, the use of driving safety and compliance with traffic regulations was not good. 33 The most common type of maxillofacial fracture was Maxillo-Zygomatica or midface fracture in 43 patients (45.3%). Pappachan et al reported that frontal bone fractures most often cause direct trauma to the head.…”

“…Pappachan et al reported that frontal bone fractures most often cause direct trauma to the head. 16 33 The relationship between sex and FISS is based on the high male sex ratio which is higher than women, which is an average of 4: 1 in maxillofacial trauma, physical activity and a greater risk of violence. So indirectly, the high ratio of men to maxillofacial trauma also affects the relationship of male sex to the value of FISS.…”

ABSTRACT Introduction. Facial bone fractures can be accompanied by life-threatening complications such as head injuries. Maxillofacial trauma increases with time. The maxillofacial facial injury severity scale (FISS) scoring system was introduced to assess the patient's severity, prognosis, and outcome. Maxillofacial FISS has predictive value on the severity of head injuries. Method. This research uses analytic observation method with cross sectional design approach. The population and sample were all maxillofacial trauma patients who had been treated at RSUP dr. Moehammad Hoesin Palembang from January-September 2018. Data is taken from secondary data, namely the patient's medical record. Results. The incidence of maxillofacial trauma at RSUP dr. Moehammad Hoesin Palembang is 95 cases. The most cases occurred in the age group <30 years (62.1%). Gender male (85.3%), the scene outside the city (52.6%). There were 21 maxillofacial trauma patients undergoing neurosurgery (22.1%). There was no relationship between FISS and the severity of head injury (p = 0.063), there was a significant relationship between FISS and neurosurgery (p = <0.001). Conclusion. There is a relationship between the severity of maxillofacial trauma based on the Facial Injury Severity Scale (FISS) score on the severity of the head injury.

A BSTRACT Introduction: Maxillofacial injuries are more prevalent in road traffic accidents (RTAs). The incidence of RTAs tends to vary with geographical location, socioeconomic status, religion etc. Aim: The main aim of this study is to determine the pattern and prevalence of maxillofacial injuries reported to our institution. Materials and Methods: Data were obtained from medical records of the patients from January 2007 to December 2017 reported in CSI College of Dental Sciences and Research, Madurai, Tamil Nadu were retrieved and analyzed. Data include age, gender, etiology, site of injury, anatomical site associated injuries and their management were recorded and analyzed with STATA software version 14 (StataCorp LLC, College Station, TX, USA). Results: Maxillofacial injuries occur more commonly in 2nd and 3rd decade (40.44%) with mean age of 32.58 ± 11.15 years. RTA (77.21%) and alcohol influence (51%) were considered as the most common cause of maxillofacial injuries and was statistically significant. Mandible (44.85%) was most commonly involved and 62.5% required a surgical intervention. Conclusion: RTA with mandibular fracture is predominant in men between the age group of 20-30 years. Expansion in road network, increase in motorization, alcohol consumption and urbanization in developing countries had accompanied with rise in RTAs. Thus the use of safety devices and educating people by conducting preventive camps about traffic rules will reduce the number of RTA.

“…Violence-related maxillofacial injuries were found to be common only in individuals aged 17-20 years. Based on the assessment as per facial injury severity scale (FISS) in the study, out of the 90 maxillofacial injuries, 37 (41.1%) were encountered in the midface, followed by mandible 27 (30%), upper face 21 (23.4%), and 5 patients (5.5%) suffered from extensive facial lacerations (Nasser et al 2013).…”

Dental caries is the leading oro-dental disease. However apart from this infectious disease leading to the demineralization of dentition, there are other oral and maxillofacial afflictions such as oral mucosal lesions including precancerous and cancerous lesions, periodontal diseases, and oral maxillofacial trauma. All these oral and maxillofacial afflictions contribute significantly to the global burden of oral diseases. Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is the political, cultural, social, and economic alliance of six countries that border the Arabian/Persian Gulf-Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman. Notwithstanding the economic prosperity in GCC countries, the incidence and prevalence of oral and maxillofacial afflictions is very high. These afflictions cause a considerable impairment of the quality of life of sufferers and exert a substantial burden on the healthcare economics of the GCC countries. Oral and maxillofacial afflictions pose a considerable healthcare challenge in the Gulf region. This chapter presents the various aspects and factors associated with some of the oral and maxillofacial afflictions in the Gulf countries.
