Facial Bone Fracture Management

Facial Bone Fracture Management

At Sthira, we specialize in the expert diagnosis and treatment of facial bone fractures, ensuring not only the restoration of facial structure and function but also the preservation of aesthetics. Facial trauma can result from road traffic accidents, sports injuries, falls, or assaults, and often involves complex fractures of the jaw, cheekbones, nose, or eye sockets.

Led by Dr. Sai Bhargav Kuchu, a skilled Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon with extensive experience in trauma management, our approach combines advanced surgical techniques with meticulous planning to achieve optimal recovery.

We manage all types of facial fractures, including:

  • Mandibular Fractures (jawbone) – Affecting chewing, speech, and alignment.

  • Maxillary Fractures (upper jaw) – Impacting bite function and facial support.

  • Zygomatic Fractures (cheekbone) – Altering facial symmetry and eye position.

  • Nasal Bone Fractures – Affecting breathing and appearance.

  • Orbital Fractures (eye socket) – Impacting vision and eye movement.

Our treatments involve open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) using plates, screws, and wires to stabilize fractured bones. This ensures proper healing, restoration of bite alignment, and return of normal facial contours. Whenever possible, we adopt minimally invasive techniques to reduce scarring and promote faster recovery.

A key part of our management is addressing associated soft tissue injuries such as lacerations, bruising, and swelling. We ensure precise closure of wounds to minimize visible scarring and preserve facial aesthetics.

In severe trauma cases, we work closely with multidisciplinary teams, including ophthalmologists, ENT specialists, and neurosurgeons, to manage complex fractures and associated injuries.

Our process includes:

  1. Accurate Diagnosis – Using advanced imaging like CT scans and 3D reconstruction.

  2. Customized Surgical Planning – Considering both functional and aesthetic outcomes.

  3. Post-Operative Care – Monitoring healing, preventing infection, and guiding rehabilitation.

At Sthira, we understand that facial fractures can have lasting impacts on both physical health and self-confidence. Our goal is to restore form, function, and appearance with precision, compassion, and the highest standard of care.
