dc.description.abstractAbstract 470 injured teeth of 370 patients who consulted the Dental Clinic of Ege University, Izmir, Turkiye for examination of treatment between 1981–1993 were evaluated. Information concerning sex, age of patients at the time of injury, cause of trauma, number of injured teeth, type of tooth and type of trauma were recorded. More boys suffered traumatic injuries (64.8%) than girls (35.2%). Patients aged 11–15 years old exhibited the highest number of injuries (37.4%) followed by the 6–10 years old group (24.5%). Most injuries involved one tooth (60%) and maxillary central incisors were the most often affected teeth (66.2%). The leading cause of injury was undefined falls (45.1%). The most common type of trauma was non-complicated crown fracture (40.4%). At the initial examination, cases seen after a long posttraumatic period showed more complications than those presented within a short time period. Educational programs about the importance of dental trauma, ways of preventing from trauma, the benefits of immediate attendance and conservation of avulsed and fractured teeth would be very helpful for patients. Additionally improving the knowledge of the dental practitioner about trauma would be another important point in solving the problem. Copyright © 1995, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserveden_US
