Abstract

Trauma to the primary dentition is a common occurrence affecting approximately 1 in 5 young children globally. Damage to the successor tooth may present as a localized enamel defect, dilaceration and disturbed eruption, with subsequent functional and social impact. Appropriate management of acute primary dental trauma, regular review and timely specialist referral upon detection of eruption sequence abnormalities is, therefore, imperative for long-term outcome to be optimal. This article presents a series of four case reports of paediatric patients with a history of severe primary dental trauma that resulted in significant dental anomalies requiring multidisciplinary treatment. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Information on the consequences of primary dental trauma and the advice to give to affected families is of value.
