Abstract

Trauma is defined as an individual's experience of an event or an enduring condition that is a real or perceived threat to his or her life and personal integrity, or that of a caregiver or family member. The nature of the experience is so overwhelming for the person that he or she is unable to successfully integrate previous experiences or knowledge into his or her emotional response to the event or condition. A bibliographic review was carried out with the aim of describing and compiling the main maxillofacial injuries due to trauma as well as the risks and complications that these may present
