Maxillofacial Fractures

The complex anatomy of the face demands experience in diagnosing and treating orbital, zygomatic, maxillary and mandibular fractures. Prof. Dr. Altan VAROL evaluates fracture lines and soft‑tissue involvement with meticulous exam and CBCT. Goals include anatomical reduction, precise soft‑tissue repair and restoration of occlusion for durable function.

Titanium plates and screws are used when needed. Early swelling/bruising is normal and managed with cold therapy and medication. Minimally invasive techniques and scar care help preserve natural facial aesthetics. Nutrition, oral hygiene and controlled activity support recovery.

Planned follow‑ups consolidate stability and protect long‑term results. Personalized planning targets a balanced, natural appearance.
