Face trauma: How long ago? Did you have blood in your mouth? Is there a large cut on chin? Usually we would be concerned with lower jaw bone fracture, loose teeth or TMJ ingury. make sure there are no loose teeth. Keep mouth clean with gentle rinses, avoid chewing or solid food for a couple of days. Make sure the wound on chin is clean and apply abx ointment, Ibuprofen for pain, may need CT if jaw hurts later.
