Maxillofacial traumatology covers a very wide area ranging from just soft tissue injuries to multiple facial skull injuries as well as whole spectrum of treatment methods for particular type of injury. The aim of each radiological examination in a patient with head and face injuries is to define the position and severity of the fracture as well as identify injuries that could endanger the airway, vision, chewing, suction and sinus functions. The multidetector CT replaced classical x-rays and led to a revolution in imaging of maxillofacial trauma. The maxillofacial region precisely encompasses the area of the face, jaw, and oral cavity. Due to the indivisibility of the viscerocranial structure, it also includes the orbit with orbital content, the nose structure with the paranasal cavities and the cervical regions. Surgical anatomy of viscerocranium recognizes two levels of face acting as separate biomechanical units, the lower face that includes the lower jaw and middle face that includes the bone structure of the viscerocranium between the skull and lower jaw base. The purpose of radiography is to confirm suspicious clinical diagnosis, to exclude the presence of fractures or foreign bodies, and to obtain information that is not clear from the clinical examination to more accurately determine the diagnosis and extent of injury. The routine projections used to evaluate the condition of a traumatized patient are Caldwell's projection, Waters projection and lateral (profile) projection. Submentovertex and projection by Town are also used to determine fractures that are not visible on other projections. With the increasing role of traumatic CT assessment, most clinicians advocate its use and consider CT as a gold standard for radiographic assessment of patients with facial trauma. The most preferred classification of the middle level facial fracture is: fractures of the nazoorbitoethmoidal and zygomatic axillary complexes, dentoalveolar fractures, orbital fractures, and middle facial fractures involving three types of Le Fort fractures (I, II and III). The fractures of the lower jaw can be classified by fragment shift, fracture type, fracture localization, fracture direction, the condition of the tooth, the age of the fracture. Radiological treatment is irreplaceable due to a very detailed representation of fracture lines on the bones, giving information of fracture fragments and bone condition. CT as the gold standard of examination of a patient experiencing trauma is absolutely indicated and its delay often leads to complications, and later therapeutic options of these injuries are often limited.
