Overview

Traumatic dental injuries (TDI) are considered the fifth most prevalent condition worldwide. TDI, particularly luxation injuries, are common in primary and permanent dentition. Luxation refers to the displacement of a tooth from its normal position in the dental socket, which can range from slight displacement (subluxation) to complete dislocation (extrusive luxation). Understanding the consequences of luxation injuries in primary and permanent teeth is crucial for managing and preventing long-term complications. Luxation injuries are prevalent in young children due to their active lifestyles and developing motor skills, making them prone to falls and accidents. Children with fractured teeth experience difficulties with eating and enjoying food. Children with untreated dental issues have also been found to avoid smiling and experience negative social interactions compared with their non-injured peers. Hence, the importance of treating traumatized anterior teeth is increasing often. Effective management requires a thorough understanding of the types of injuries and appropriate interventions to prevent long-term complications.
