MINIMALLY INVASIVE TECHNOLOGIES IN THE TREATMENT OF TRAUMATIC FACIAL AND JAW INJURIES

This article explores the use of minimally invasive technologies in the treatment of traumatic facial and jaw injuries. The study emphasizes the advantages of small incisions, endoscopic assistance, laser and ultrasonic tools, and computer-guided navigation in reducing surgical trauma, postoperative pain, and recovery time. It highlights how these approaches improve functional and aesthetic outcomes, minimize complications, and enhance patient satisfaction. The article also discusses the current clinical applications of minimally invasive techniques, their effectiveness compared to traditional open surgery, and potential future developments including three-dimensional planning, robotic assistance, and artificial intelligence. The research underlines the relevance of these technologies in modern maxillofacial surgery and their contribution to more precise, safe, and patient-friendly treatment strategies.
