Abstract
The aim of this study is to disassemble, through scientific articles and government exposure, the surgical management of facial trauma. And as secondary objectives, to understand the particularities of these injuries and understand the effects that oral and maxillofacial trauma entails in the lives of those affected. An in-depth search of articles was carried out in the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) and PubMed databases, with the following Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS): Reconstructive surgery; Lesion; Trauma. Articles were selected between the periods of 2000 to 2020, in English and Portuguese. It is concluded from the analysis of these studies that the complexity of the injuries caused by facial trauma can affect the treatment of those affected. Young people are the main victims of facial trauma, which, in turn, affects the aesthetics and psychological condition of those affected. For the best prognosis, the etiological agent, time of exposure of the lesion and the degree of contamination must be considered, in addition to the primordial need, the guarantee of airways.
