Abstract :

Emergencies in Maxillofacial surgery could be very dramatic anything ranging from torrential bleeding to rip roaring infections or sudden blindness due to complication arising from oral surgical treatment. Emergencies never occur all of a sudden, there is usually progression of the sign and symptoms leading to a full blown emergency. There is a proverbial saying “ What the mind does not know, the eye does not see” What is important to the Oral surgeon and his team is to recognises signs and symptoms well in advance so that necessary precautions and actions taken to prevent such emergencies.

Early intervention in such scenarios reduce the morbidity and mortality outcomes. In this presentation we look at some of the common as well as potential emergencies that we come across in the dental practice settings and we highlight early warning signs and appropriate measures taken to prevent such emergencies. We also look at the current trends in managing such emergencies.

Learning objectives :

  • Need for detailed history and proper clinical examination prior to starting the procedure.
  • Discuss with the patient the potential risk that involves in the procedure
  • Anticipate the potential risk for complication
  • Take necessary steps to prevent such complications
  • Be aware and be prepared with what you would do in the event such complication happens
