Abstract

Fractures of the maxillofacial skeleton, often accompanied by dentoalveolar injuries, are no exception. Dentists may become primarily involved in the diagnosis of such a trauma and the treatment of dentoalveolar injuries. More often they will play an important role in the aftercare of such a patient (endodontics, prosthodontics). This paper describes the general principles of the treatment of such patients. The specific treatment of maxillofacial trauma will be described in the contributions of other authors in this special issue.
