Las fracturas faciales en niños muestran características importantes en lo que respecta a su prevalencia, diagnóstico y tratamiento, las cuales las diferencian de las fracturas en adultos. Por estas razones, el trauma infantil debe ser objeto de especial atención ya que presentan particulares características anatómicas, fisiológicas y psicológicas propias de la edad del paciente. Las fracturas mandibulares infantiles que presenten pequeños desplazamientos pueden ser tratadas conservadoramente, mientras que, aquellas que presenten desplazamientos mayores y que interfieran con la función deben ser tratadas de manera semejante a la de los adultos, esto es con reducción cruenta y estabilización, la misma que puede ser obtenida por medio de dispositivos como placas, alambres de acero, tornillos, tornillos y placas de titanio o mediante sistemas de osteosíntesis resorbibles. Estos diferentes sistemas presentan indicaciones, ventajas y desventajas, las cuales deben ser consideradas a fin de elegir la opción de tratamiento más adecuada The facial fractures in children show important characteristics about their prevalence, diagnosis and treatment, which differentiate them from fractures in adults. For these reasons, children trauma should be a subject of special attention to due the anatomical, physiological and psychological considerations of the patient´s age. The children jaw fractures that show little displacements can be treat in a conservative way, while those that show greater displacements and interfering with the function should be treated similarly to that in adults, this is with open reduction and stabilization, using some devices such as plaques, steel wires, screws and titanium plaques or through resorbable osteosynthesis systems. These different systems show indications, advantages and disadvantages, which must be considered in order to choose the most suitable treatment
