ABSTRACT The epidemic of general injuries is among the most neglected health problems of the 21st century and the importance of Traumatic Dental injuries (TDI) has attracted little attention. AIM To assess the prevalence and factors associated with anterior teeth traumatic injuries in 11-13 year old school children of Maduravoyal, Chennai. METHODOLOGY Cluster sampling methodology was used for selection of subjects, where each school formed a cluster. All students aged 11-13 years were examined in accordance with the Ellis and Davey classification of traumatic injuries to anterior teeth. Statistical analysis was done by Chi-Square test. RESULTS Among the 687 (M=393, F=294) examined, 11.5% (n=79) experienced TDI. 78.5% (n=62) boys experienced TDI which was approximately thrice as higher as in females being 21.5% (n=17). The most commonly affected teeth were maxillary central incisors. “Fall” was the most common cause for TDI. Most common type of fractures were class I and class II and most of them were untreated. All these findings were statistically highly significant (P< 0.001). CONCLUSION TDI is an existing dental problem and emphasis should be given in school dental health programmes on preventive aspects of TDI.

Introduction. Comprehensive epidemiological data regarding factors associated with traumatic dental injuries are scarce. Objective. The aim of the present study was to assess the frequency and analyze the factors associated with traumatic dental injuries in Serbian children. Methods. Research included children and adolescents with traumatic dental injury aged 0-19 year during the period from 2003 to 2010, in four University Dental Centres in Serbia: Belgrade, Nis, Novi Sad and Kragujevac. Patient history, demographic, clinical and radiographic data were obtained from dental trauma forms. Results. Total of 2,194 patients (748 girls, 1,446 boys) (?2=222.1; p<0.01) with 3,077 injured teeth in permanent and 953 in primary dentition were observed. Most of patients were aged 7 to 12 years (n=1,191). The most frequent injuries in primary and permanent dentition were dislocations (87.4%) and teeth fractures (50.8%), respectively (?2=706.1; p<0.01). The most frequent mechanism of injury was fall in children aged 0 to 12 years, while the collisions were most frequent in adolescents (53.9%). The most frequent injuries in adolescents were inflicted outdoor (66.8%), while the injuries in children aged 0 to 3 years occurred at home (68.2%), (?2=360.8; p<0.01). The most frequent injuries in girls were accidental (48.3%), and in boys these were sport injuries (20.4%) and violence (10.4%) (?2=79.9; p<0.01). The most frequent cause of injury in children aged 0 to 3 years was accidental (75.6%), while in adolescents it was sport (34.1%) (?2=1102.7; p<0.01). Conclusion. Dental injuries in preschool children most frequently resulted from fall at home. Schoolchildren most frequently injured teeth outdoor during play. Violence and sport injuries were most frequent cause of injury in adolescents.
