Abstract

This report constitutes a 7-year study of facial fractures based on a series of 616 patients who were treated for facial fractures as in-patients at Chosun University Dental Hospital between 1998 and April 2005. The following results were obtained : 1. The ratio of men to women was 5 : 1. 2. The major etiological factors were falls (36.2%), traffic accidents (23.4%), punches (18.1%), sports (8.3%), and accidents related to work (2.8%). 3. They were most frequent in the second (28.8%), first (26.6%), and third (12.3) decades, in that order. 4. The sites of frequent mandible fracture are the symphysis (32%), left mandibular angle (25.3%), and right mandibular angle (10.9%). 5. The most frequent maxillary fractures were zygomatic fractures (46.4%), Le Fort I fractures (28.8%), and Le Fort II (12.0%) fractures.
