rauma to the primary dentition present special problems and the management is often different as com-
pared with permanent teeth. An appropriate emergency treatment plan is important for a good prognosis.
The management of adult dental trauma can be a daunting challenge for practitioners at any level. Like medi-
cal emergencies, initial management can have a large influence on prognosis. It is important that practitioners
understand the basic principles of managing the acute presentations of dental trauma. During last decade
traumatic dental injuries were recognized as public dental health problem worldwide. Prevalence of traumatic
dental injuries varies between countries. According to the existing data they are more prevalent in permanent
than in primary dentition. All treatment procedures in case of dental trauma are directed to minimize unde-
sired consequences despite that treatment of traumatic dental injuries in the young patient is often complicat-
ed and can continue during the rest of his/her life. The changing lifestyle and requirements of modern society
lead to an emergence of new patterns of dental trauma. A regular update of knowledge in dental traumatology
is required.
