Maxillofacial Trauma Management: It Doesn’t Have to Be a Jaw-Dropping Experience

Live Webinar: Thursday, December 11, Noon - 1 pm

Oromaxillofacial trauma can be intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. This lecture will guide general practitioners through the practical steps of triaging, stabilizing, and managing common oral and maxillofacial injuries in small animal patients. Topics will include initial assessment, pain control, wound management, temporary stabilization techniques, and recognizing cases that warrant referral. Through real-world examples and clinical tips, attendees will gain the confidence to approach maxillofacial trauma methodically—ensuring better patient outcomes and less “jaw-dropping” stress in the exam room.
