Prevention of Dental trauma

This article aims to review dental trauma highlighting the significance of identification of clinical and social risk factors and prevention of TDIs. These risk factors are further divided into modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors which can guide the clinician on what further action is required and when other members of the dental or medical team should be involved. The importance of patient education in prevention of TDIs, including use of mouthguards in sport, and mouthguard design will be discussed.PMID:38018671 | DOI:10.1177/20501684231210090
