These complex injuries can impact multiple structures simultaneously: facial bones, teeth, masticatory muscles, sensory nerves, and soft tissues. Unlike fractures in other parts of the body, a maxillofacial fracture directly affects the ability to eat, speak, smile, and express emotions. Our surgeons pay particular attention to the functional and aesthetic aspects of each procedure. In our maxillofacial surgery practice in Quebec, we observe that road accidents are the primary cause of severe trauma, followed by sports activities, work accidents, and assaults.    <\/p>\n<p>Regardless of the circumstance, it is essential to consult promptly to prevent any worsening of the condition. Injuries can be minor, such as tooth loss, or major, such as multiple fractures of the maxilla, cheekbone, or eye orbit. Thanks to our expertise in oral surgery in Montreal, we provide personalized care tailored to the severity of each case.  <\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/cliniquemaxillo.com\/contact\/\" target=\"\"> <span>Book an appointment now<\/span> <\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"lg:col-start-7 xl:col-start-8 mt-8 || lg:mt-0 lg:col-span-6 lg:row-start-1 xl:col-span-5\">\n                    <div class=\"thumbnail w-full \"\n        style=\"padding-bottom: 125.23364485981%\"\n    >\n\n\n    <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"820\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cliniquemaxillo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/final-31.det2_.jpg\" alt=\"Module image\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cliniquemaxillo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/final-31.det2_.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/cliniquemaxillo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/final-31.det2_-1024x700.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cliniquemaxillo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/final-31.det2_-640x437.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cliniquemaxillo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/final-31.det2_-480x328.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cliniquemaxillo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/final-31.det2_-350x239.jpg 350w, https:\/\/cliniquemaxillo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/final-31.det2_-150x103.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1200px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1200\/820;\" \/>  <\/div>            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n    <section class=\"content-two-cols-with-image || section\">\n        \n<span class=\"absolute top-0 left-0\" ><\/span>        <div class=\"wrapper\">\n            <div class=\"lg:grid-col\">\n                <div class=\"mb-8 || md:lg:col-start-5 xl:col-start-6 lg:mb-10 lg:col-span-8 xl:col-span-7\">\n                                            <h2 class=\"text-h2 || mb-8 || md:col-span-full\">Our clinic participates in the treatment of facial trauma<\/h2>\n                                        <div class=\"flex flex-col gap-8 || md:grid md:grid-cols-2 lg:gap-16\">\n                        <div class=\"wysiwyg-container \">\n    <p>Following a serious event or accident, the patient is transported to the hospital.
