Management of upper lip complex laceration due to industrial trauma in a 30 year old male

Journal Title: International Journal of Oral Health Dentistry - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 4

Abstract

Speech articulation, tactile sensation and food consumption are coordinated by highly visible facial structures such as lips. Injury to this anatomical region is one of the commonest occurrence in the oral and maxillofacial emergency. Cosmetical deformation can occur due to its prominence. Patient satisfaction and cosmetic output are obtained by decreasing infection and careful surgical repair pertaining to location and nature of injury. In this scientific article, we highlight a case of complex upper lip laceration due to industrial trauma in a 30 year old male.
