                    This book aims to assist the reader in navigating the potentially complex  decision-making process involved in selecting the most appropriate intervention  for each particular scenario that may be encountered by the practitioner or  surgeon in the growing patient with facial trauma. Among the topics covered are  the initial management of both soft and bony trauma, including different types  of fracture, as well as the management of complications and revision surgery.  The discerning practitioner will learn how to provide the appropriate  intervention at the appropriate time, by taking into account skeletal growth  when matching techniques to the injuries more common in the skeletally immature  patient. It is also emphasized that in some cases, no intervention is advisable  owing to the possibility of damaging growth centers or introducing additional  scar tissue that may impede future growth. Pediatric Maxillofacial Trauma will  provide key knowledge for surgeons treating growing patients, ensuring that  their decisions to operate or delay intervention are evidence based.
