Abstract:
Childhood injuries contribute to more than 20% of all injury cases, making the prevention and treatment of such injuries a pressing medical and social concern, as underscored by the World Health Organization (WHO). Over the past two years, childhood trauma has ranked as the second leading cause of visits to the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery. The selection of the most effective treatment method is crucial as it impacts the child’s jaw and tooth development, chewing and speech functions, and overall appearance. This study aims to assess recent techniques in treating soft tissue trauma in children.
