An Epidemiologic Review of Maxillofacial Trauma: A 3-Decade Experience in a Tertiary Medical Center

The authors' findings align with global literature on sex and age. Notably, age and etiology differences exist between males and females. A rise in assaults as an etiology may indicate societal changes, warranting attention. An increase in the number of fractures per MVA case coupled with a decrease in MVA-related facial fractures may reflect changing safety measures. Further research representing areas that differ demographically and socioeconomically can illuminate society-wide trends and variations.
