Abstract

Background

The oral and maxillofacial complex is subject to a range of traumas. Injuries to the region are devastating and have a great impact on social health outcomes. This review intends to investigate the aetiologies of maxillofacial trauma across Australia.

Methods

This review was written in accordance with the PRISMA-ScR. Comprehensive searches of CINAHL, MEDLINE, Ovid, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were conducted to identify potentially relevant literature. Quantitative observational epidemiological studies were sought and were required to include at least one aetiology to the maxillofacial region in their data set. A total of 31 eligible studies were included.

Results

The greatest recorded causes of maxillofacial injuries included inter-personal violence (34.98%) falls (20.87%), sports (15.62%), and motor-vehicle accidents (14.31%). These four aetiologies cumulatively accounted for more than 85% of maxillofacial injuries. From all sustained injuries (n = 7661), the orbit was the most prevalent site of fracture (31.85%), followed by the zygoma (22.01%), mandible (21%), nasal bone (12.45%), maxilla (10.04%), dentoalveolus (1.84%), antrum (<1%), and frontal bone (<1%).

Conclusion

Violence was an unprecedented cause of trauma—additional research is recommended to further characterize the correlation between the two variables. Research is also recommended specifically in regional/rural communities, where data was particularly limited. © 2024 Australian Dental Association.

澳大利亚颌面部创伤的病因：范围审查。

背景：口腔颌面复合体会受到一系列创伤。该区域的创伤是毁灭性的，对社会健康结果有很大影响。本综述旨在调查澳大利亚颌面部创伤的病因：本综述根据 PRISMA-ScR 编写。对 CINAHL、MEDLINE、Ovid、Scopus 和 Web of Science 数据库进行了全面检索，以确定潜在的相关文献。研究对象为定量观察性流行病学研究，要求其数据集中至少包含一项颌面部病因。共纳入了 31 项符合条件的研究：颌面部受伤的主要原因包括人际暴力（34.98%）、跌倒（20.87%）、运动（15.62%）和机动车事故（14.31%）。这四种病因累计占颌面部损伤的 85% 以上。在所有持续性损伤中（n = 7661），眼眶是最常见的骨折部位（31.85%），其次是颧骨（22.01%）、下颌骨（21%）、鼻骨（12.45%）、上颌骨（10.04%）、牙槽骨（1.84%）、窦（结论：暴力是造成颌面部创伤的前所未有的原因：暴力是造成创伤的一个前所未有的原因--建议开展更多研究，以进一步确定这两个变量之间的相关性。此外，还建议对数据特别有限的地区/农村社区进行专门研究。© 2024 澳大利亚牙科协会。
