This aim of this study is being conducted to assess the incidence of fascial space infection and its management in patients presenting to department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Dasmesh Institute of Research and Dental Sciences, Faridkot. This retrospective study was done the in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Dasmesh Institute of Research and Dental Sciences, Faridkot, India, from January 2015 to December 2020. Total 84 fascial space infection record of previous five year patients (reporting to Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery was evaluated. Patients reported with fascial space infection with age group from 16-70 yrs and ASA I & I were included in this study. The age group most commonly involved was in the third and fourth decades of life. The mean age group was 33.55. Males (55.95%) were more commonly involved than females (44.05%). The most commonly involved space was Right submandibular space infection (17.86%) followed by left submandibular space infection 15.48, R buccal space infection (9.52%), Left buccal space infection (7.14%), Right infraorbital space infection (7.14%), Left pterygomandibular space infection (7.14%),Space infection wrt left submandibular space, submental space, left sublingual space(5.95%), Masticatory space infection with impending submandibular + submental cellulitis (5.95%).
