Dental trauma is damage to teeth, gums, or adjacent oral structures brought on by falls, sports injuries, physical impact, or accidents. It can cover tiny chips and fractures as well as serious tooth displacement or avulsion—that is, total loss. Common forms of dental trauma are soft tissue damage, broken teeth, luxation (tooth dislocation), and root fractures.
The degree of the trauma will determine the symptoms; they can be pain, swelling, bleeding, tooth sensitivity, or trouble biting. When a tooth avulses, swift action is vital; reimplanting the tooth within 30 minutes greatly increases the likelihood of a successful recovery.
The degree of the damage determines the different course of treatment. Dental bonding can fix minor chips; fractures could call for crowns or root canal treatment. While badly damaged teeth may require treatments like dental implants or bridges, displaced teeth are typically relocated and stabilised. Soft tissue injuries may call for antiseptic treatment and stitches to ward against infection.
Preventing problems like infections or long-term damage requires seeking quick dental treatment. Protective actions, such as using mouthguards in sports and avoiding biting hard items, can lessen dental trauma.
