Abstract
Maxillofacial fractures are relatively rare in the pediatric population. However, the consequences of such fractures can be very profound. Age-specific variations occur with regards to particular fracture types. We review these specific types of fractures, their etiologies, appropriate diagnostic studies, and early management.
