Dental Trauma: It is always best to see a dentist for any trauma to the head, especially when the teeth or jaw are effected. Regardless of the degree of pain, swelling, soreness, there are injuries to structures that patients are not always aware of. There are also possible future problems related to the injury that patient need to be made aware of. Please see a dentist asap to be checked out.

Panoramic Radiograph: allows visibility of the entire mandible and maxilla. After ruling out a jaw fracture, check for fractured or lost molars. See an oral surgeon ASAP for panoramic radiograph and diagnosis.
