Popis: | This study investigated problems in the permanent dentition that, according to history and records, were attributable to dental alveolar injuries of the primary dentition. 106 children have been involved in the study, who had experienced primary anterior tooth trauma affecting a total of 200 teeth. Thirty-nine patients (81 teeth) were available for follow-up examinations. In 25% of the cases followed up, damage was found on the successors in the secondary dentition (16 children/20 teeth). In half of the cases, a comparatively mild form of lesion like enamel discoloration was observed. This was the result of an injury during the tooth maturation process causing enamel hypoplasia. Clinically more relevant were the dental deformities: cessation of root formation or retention caused by ankylosis, which made up the remaining 50% of cases. This was confirmed by clinical long-term observation. The different effects on the permanent teeth can only be detected by radiography after an interval of several months or may even be clinically assessed only after the eruption of the clinical crown. |
