"Facial injuries can be very serious. Not only are the sense organs, the eyes, ears, nose and mouth located there, but the nasal and oral passages are also essential for respiration. In addition, the facial area is very vascular and can bleed heavily if injured, requiring prompt and careful assessment and treatment. Finally, but no less important to the patient are the possible cosmetic effects of serious injuries. This program will discuss treatment of various facial injuries, to include injuries of the nose, mouth, ears, jaw and facial bones."
