Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: The aim of this study was to investigate the pattern and distribution of traumatic injuries to primary and permanent anterior teeth in 2-14-year-old pediatric dental patients in AlHassa region of Saudi Arabia.
UNASSIGNED: The study sample consisted of pediatric dental patients visiting the university dental complex seeking treatment for traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) during the period from February 2022 to April 2023. Data were collected by means of interviewing the children and/or parents regarding the history of trauma and clinical examination for evidence of dental trauma to primary and permanent teeth.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 122 children (184 teeth) including 78 (63.9%) boys and 44 (36.1%) girls sustained traumatic injuries to their teeth. The most common reason for dental trauma was falls, and maxillary right central incisor was the most frequently affected permanent teeth. Enamel-dentine fractures in permanent teeth and luxation injuries among primary teeth were predominantly noted. Majority of the injuries (47.5%) have been found to have not received timely attention for treatment.
UNASSIGNED: Early treatment of dental trauma should be emphasized, and preventive strategies targeted at parents and teachers at the community level are needed to promote and reduce the burden of TDIs.
摘要:
这项研究的目的是调查沙特阿拉伯AlHassa地区2-14岁儿童牙科患者的原发性和永久性前牙外伤的模式和分布。
研究样本包括在2022年2月至2023年4月期间访问大学牙科综合体寻求外伤性牙齿损伤(TDI)治疗的儿科牙科患者。通过采访儿童和/或父母有关创伤史和临床检查以了解乳牙和恒牙的牙齿创伤的证据来收集数据。
共有122名儿童(184颗牙齿),其中78名(63.9%)男孩和44名(36.1%)女孩遭受了牙齿外伤。牙齿外伤最常见的原因是跌倒,上颌右中切牙是最常见的恒牙。主要注意到恒牙中的牙釉质-牙本质骨折和乳牙中的脱位损伤。大多数(47.5%)的伤害被发现没有得到及时的关注以进行治疗。
应强调牙外伤的早期治疗,需要针对社区一级家长和教师的预防策略,以促进和减轻TDI的负担。
