Oral SurgeryLe Fort I Fracture
Le Fort I fracture involves the maxilla and typically
includes the upper teeth and palate, lower portions of the pterygoid
processes, and the nasal spine. However, it does not involve the bridge of
the nose, which is part of the facial skeleton above the maxilla.

Oral SurgeryTorus palatinus reduction involves removing a bony prominence from the palate. Acrylic splints provide stabilization, protect the surgical site, and prevent hematoma formation. Other conditions like mandibular alveoplasty do not require splints for similar reasons.

Oral SurgeryExplanation:
Adrenaline (epinephrine) is commonly added to local anesthetics to prolong their effect and reduce bleeding in the area. It works by constricting blood vessels, which decreases the rate of absorption of the anesthetic into the bloodstream, thereby enhancing its duration of action.

Oral SurgeryA bilateral inferior alveolar nerve block is not inherently contraindicated. It
is commonly performed in cases requiring surgery on both sides of the mandible.
However, it should be done with caution in patients with certain medical
conditions or anatomical variations that could increase the risk of
complications. It is important to assess each patient individually before
administering the block.
