Current trends in the treatment of maxillofacial injuries in the United States.
This report presents the results of a 1987 survey of members of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons used to assess current national and regional trends in the management of maxillofacial trauma. Comparisons are also made with a similar British survey done in 1980. The results show differences between the two countries as well as regional differences within the United States. The significance of these findings are discussed.
