SUMMARY:

“Dental trauma refers to injuries affecting teeth and their supporting structures, often resulting from falls, collisions, or accidents. These injuries can cause damage and sequelae in both primary and permanent dentition and are of increasing interest due to their high prevalence in epidemiological surveys, which justifies investments in prevention and improvements in restorative techniques. The etiology, age group, gender, and most affected teeth are well-established factors, though individual characteristics vary depending on the study location. The severity of trauma seems to be associated with the patient's age, type of tooth, extent of the injury, and stage of development. Understanding the consequences of trauma is essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment, which are often performed urgently. Epidemiological studies enable the planning of preventive actions that reduce the prevalence of such traumas. In cases of enamel and dentin fractures without pulp involvement, the focus of this study, dental fragment reattachment is a conservative treatment approach, with its efficacy influenced by prior hydration of the fragment and the choice of intermediate material. This study aims to evaluate, through a cross-sectional study, the epidemiological profile of patients treated by the Dental Trauma Extension Project of the University of Brasília between 2011 and 2024, to monitor the treatment of coronal fractures by comparing fragment reattachment and composite resin restorations, and to develop a health education tool on the subject.”
