Abstract :

 Background : Oro-facial trauma represent one of the most important problems of  public health interest  because of  high incidence and diversity of trauma.

Methods : A descriptive statistical analysis was developed based on data collected in a cross sectional study conducted for a period of 12 months. Information regarding  demographic details, etiology, time ,type of injury,use of safety device  and type of radiograph advised was recorded on a pre-structured format.

Results: A total of 219 subjects with mean age of 33.34±12.75 years were analysed. The reported male :female ratio was 2.9:1.The most common etiology of trauma was road traffic accidents, mandible (58.30%) was most frequently involved.

Conclusion :This study support the view that RTAs (road traffic accidents ) are the most common etiology of oro-facial trauma . According to these data it seems reasonable to assume that road traffic legislation enforcement and continuous public education toward the use of restraining devices should be encouraged.
