The increasing number of RTA and related CMF injuries suggests the need for immediate attention from concerned authorities, to enforce strict laws like mandatory use of seat belts and total head and face guard (that suit climatic conditions) rather than the conventional helmets. Restricting the use of mobile phones and head phones while driving may lead to decrease in the incidence of RTA. If RTA is considered an epidemic of modern times, then prevention is its vaccine. Increasing public awareness towards voluntary use of safety measures for their own safety rather than merely obeying the rules can avoid most of the cranio-maxillofacial injuries. Panfacial trauma can appear complex and challenging to cope up but is actually the conglomeration of treating individual fractures in maxillofacial injuries (it would be wise to "simplify" the fracture in the minds' eye view and formulating a treatment plan accordingly). Adhering to a treatment protocol and treating each fracture as a unit with adequate fixation, enable the surgeon to obtain favorable results along with speedy prognosis.
