Abstract
Permanent tooth trauma was studied from a population of 107 traumatized children, aged between 6 and 15 years, who were referred for dental trauma consultation and dental emergencies for 12 months. An interview of the parents, as well as a clinical and radiographic examination, were carried out in order to specify the circumstances, the location and the type of trauma suffered by the child. The results highlight: A trauma prevalence equal to 12.6% Male predominance is common to general traumatology. The high frequency of trauma between 9 to 12 years with a peak at the age of 10 years. The urgency of the dental traumatisms. The high frequency of falls followed by road accidents. The predominance of the street as a place of occurrence of trauma. The high frequency of coronary fractures, dislocations and subluxations. The high frequency of trauma involving 2 teeth. The frequent localization at the level of the upper central incisors. The predominance of restorative treatments and restraints as emergency therapy.
