It would have been recorded as a head injury. When I broke my collarbone it got recorded as a head injury because I had a fabric graze from my cap. I pointed out that I would have had the same graze whatever I had on my head, even a helmet.
I wonder if you would have broken your jaw had you not been wearing a helmet that made hitting your chin more likely than hitting your cheek or forehead?
