At Arkansas Oral & Facial Surgery Center, we provide expert facial trauma treatments, delivering specialized care to patients who have experienced injuries to the face, jaw, or mouth. Facial trauma, often resulting from accidents, sports injuries, or falls, requires a skilled and meticulous approach to restore function, aesthetics, and overall well-being. Our team of oral surgeons combines advanced surgical expertise, cutting-edge technology, and a compassionate approach to ensure optimal recovery for every patient.

Our oral surgeon, Dr. Patton Minkin, at Arkansas Oral & Facial Surgery Center in Springdale, Arkansas is extensively trained in managing a wide range of facial trauma cases, from fractured jaws and cheekbones to soft tissue injuries and displaced teeth. We begin with a thorough assessment, utilizing the latest diagnostic tools to evaluate the extent of the damage with precision. This allows us to develop a tailored treatment plan, whether it involves realigning broken bones, repairing lacerations, or addressing dental injuries. Our expertise ensures that both structural integrity and facial symmetry are restored effectively.

Precision is critical in facial trauma treatment, and we employ state-of-the-art techniques to achieve the best outcomes. For fractures, we use biocompatible plates and screws to stabilize bones, promoting proper healing with minimal scarring. Soft tissue repairs are performed with microsurgical methods to preserve appearance and function. We also address dental trauma, such as avulsed (knocked-out) teeth, with immediate care to maximize the chance of successful reimplantation. Sedation or general anesthesia is expertly administered to ensure patient comfort during these complex procedures.

At Arkansas Oral & Facial Surgery Center, we understand the emotional and physical toll of facial trauma. Our team provides clear communication, explaining each step of the process and offering support throughout recovery. We coordinate with other specialists—like plastic surgeons or ENT doctors—when needed, ensuring comprehensive care. Post-operative follow-ups are a priority, as we monitor healing, manage pain, and address any complications promptly.

Patients trust Arkansas Oral & Facial Surgery Center for our proven ability to handle facial trauma with skill and empathy. Many express gratitude for the restored function and confidence they regain after treatment. Our commitment to excellence in facial trauma care—through advanced techniques, personalized attention, and a focus on long-term results—solidifies our reputation as experts in this critical field, helping patients heal and move forward with assurance.
