Craniomaxillofacial injury in sport: a review of prevention research

P S Echlin et al. Br J Sports Med. 2005 May.

Abstract

Current decision making in prevention of sport related craniomaxillofacial injury is based on available data derived from surveillance and attitude based studies. The literature on this type of injury prevention lacks the high quality scientific design and evidence on which mandatory interventions can be based. Currently available prevention methodology can provide a better understanding of injury mechanisms and produce valid interventions.
