It's certainly a risk, but how big? I wore full-face helmets for the first 46 years of my riding, fell off/crashed half a dozen times (3 times when competing in hill climbs, 3 times on the road) only banged my head twice, not seriously. and never got anywhere near hitting my face. It was my knees and shoulders that sustained the damage.

I switched to open-face helmets a couple of years ago when I was finding full-face helmets were just too hot, and I judged them really not necessary for pottering around the countryside at 50 mph.
