abstract="High velocity motor vehicle accidents are associated with an increase in mortality rates and a significant number of facial injuries. Accidental deployment of airbags and the associated release of hot gases can result in both thermal and mechanical injuries. The more commonly reported maxillofacial injuries include temporomandibular joint fractures and dislocations, dental trauma, facial nerve paralysis, and other orofacial pain complaints. The following case report describes a patient with facial trauma from the accidental deployment of an airbag resulting in complaints consistent with a neurological injury for which quantitative sensory testing was used in confirming the diagnosis.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
