The bone and soft tissues of the face are able to absorb the energy from impact forces. Force to the bone in the elastic range causing the deformation and after force removal, bone returns to its previous state, but if the force be greater than the elasticity of bone, a permanent displacement occurs and be irreversible. Furthermore, when these forces exceed the strength of these tissues, a variety of fractures can occur. The buttress theory proposes that the midfacial region is like a framework that is stabilized by horizontal and vertical buttresses. The most common causes of maxillofacial trauma are traffic accidents, injuries from fights, sport accidents or falls. The Le Fort’s classification is based on low-velocity trauma, and does not completely reflect the breadth of high-velocity fractures encountered in modern practice. Currently, facial fractures are classified into central midface fractures, lateral midface fractures and mandibular fractures. Nasal, nasoethmoidal, Zygomatic bone, and orbital fractures are presented. Today, surgical techniques have been moving away from delayed closed reduction with internal wires suspension to early open reduction and internal plate fixation. Different treatment approaches exist to restore the facial skeleton using the different facial buttresses as landmarks.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

2. THE DECONSTRUCTED PREFACE
We had the idea of writing an e-book on identification of facial
fractures on routine radiographs and CT scans. We have attempted to
cover the variety of facial fractures encountered in maxillofacial
surgical practice.
This e-book amalgamates practical real world knowledge of
our facial trauma unit with a simplified pictorial depiction of cases .
Although the structure of contents is unconventional and extremely
simplified, a detailed version will be made available for
comprehension. The book has been designed to serve young
trainees of oral and maxillofacial surgery and allied specialties.
