Facial Trauma Repair

Unfortunately, accidents happen.  Whether youíre involved in a sporting injury, a fall, or a car accident, injuries to the face, teeth, head, and neck are common.  Sporting injuries are the most common types of facial injuries seen in Boulder County, and include road and mountain biking, baseball, skiing, soccer, hockey, hiking, and climbing injuries.  Additionally, dog bites to the face are not uncommon.

Facial injuries can affect soft tissues such as lacerations of skin, muscles, and nerves, or can affect hard tissues such as bones and teeth.  Injuries can range in severity from minor lacerations, to some loss of skin, muscle, teeth, and bone, to severe fractures involving all of the teeth and bones of the face.

At Boulder Surgical Arts and Boulder Dental Health, our doctors are exquisitely trained in the management of facial and dental trauma.  We use the most sophisticated techniques to repair complex lacerations while minimizing scarring, repair fractured teeth, reposition, stabilize, and save teeth when possible, and can repair all of the bones of the face to maximize your post-injury appearance and function.

After you recover from your injury, if needed, our doctors can utilize advanced reconstructive techniques to revise and improve scars, replace missing teeth and bone, and enhance your facial form and function.  If you or a loved one are a victim of trauma, contact us as soon as possible after the event.
