Abstract
Damage to the teeth of a young child can leave serious and
prolonged periods of time, leading to a change in color, deformity
or possible loss of it. The psychological impact of such damage
can be very wide. Therefore, the pediatric dentist should have the
following characteristics such as: having the knowledge of the
treatment of the traumatized tooth and being available to provide
the necessary treatment and services at any time of the day. The
most common teeth that are damaged in the primary dental system
are maxillary incisors. Primary molars are rarely damaged and are
often damaged by indirect injury (i.e., impacts that come to the
lower level of the chin and cause the mandible to close with a large
force against the maxillary).
