A jaw fracture, also known as a mandibular fracture, refers to a break or crack in the bones of the jaw, typically involving the mandible (the lower jawbone).Types of Jaw Fractures: Simple Fracture: A clean break in the bone with minimal displacement, where the bone pieces are still relatively aligned. Comminuted Fracture: The bone breaks into multiple pieces, which can complicate healing and treatment. Compound Fracture: A fracture where the bone breaks and pierces through the skin, increasing the risk of infection. Greenstick Fracture: A partial fracture, often seen in younger individuals, where the bone bends and cracks but doesn't fully break. Fractures of the Mandibular Condyle: The part of the mandible that connects to the skull (temporomandibular joint or TMJ) may also be fracturedDiagnosis: Physical Examination: A doctor will assess the alignment and tenderness of the jaw. X-rays: To visualize the location and extent of the fracture. CT Scan: In more complex cases, a CT scan can help get a clearer view of the injury.Contact https://drnazeerdentalclinic.com today!Address, Phone Number, Contact Email :Orthodontix Dental Clinic,A-301, Al Shoala Building (Green House Building), Al Naboodah Building, DNATA Intersection,Landmark : Next to Toyota showroom, Near Deira City Center, DUBAI.
