Dental trauma refers to trauma (injury) to the teeth and/or periodontium (gums, periodontal tendon, alveolar bone), and nearby soft tissues, for example, the lips, tongue, etc. The study of dental injury is called dental traumatology. Dental trauma is most common in youthful individuals, representing 17% of wounds to the body in those matured 0– 6 years compared to a normal of 5% over all ages. It is more frequently observed in males compared to females. Traumatic dental injuries are more common in permanent teeth compared to deciduous teeth and usually involve the front teeth of the upper jaw.
