      Аннотация: Dental trauma affects the hard tissues of the teeth and causes pulpal and periodontal lesions. They are of great relevance to present day dentistry because of their frequency, the functional and esthetic disturbances that accompany them and the rapidity with which these problems must be treated. Dental trauma is invariably distressing and painful for the patient, and a challenge for the clinicians to manage. Guidelines are needed to assist dentists as well as other health care professionals in delivering the best possible care in the most efficient manner. It is very important to promote public awareness and to educate the population at greatest risk for dental injury. Therefore, this book includes basic information on assessment and treatment strategies for managing dental injuries, as well as methods of minimizing complications and preventive strategies. The correct application of this management by dentists immediately following the trauma should improve short and long-term outcome of treatment of the patient and should be helpful to the professionals.
