Most traumatic dental injuries occur among children and teenagers, but people of any age can be affected, typically as a result of sports mishaps, automobile accidents, or bad falls. Regardless of the cause, you may need to visit an oral surgeon if you’ve experienced a traumatic dental injury. Any dental injury, even if mild, requires immediate examination by a dentist or oral surgeon. Sometimes, neighbouring teeth suffer an additional, unnoticed injury that will only be detected during a thorough exam.
Traumatic dental injuries often occur as a result of an accident or sports injury. The majority of these injuries are minor – chipped teeth. It’s less common to dislodge your tooth or have it knocked completely out but these injuries are more severe. Treatment depends on the type, location, and severity of each injury. Regardless of the extent of the injury, your tooth requires immediate examination by a dentist or an endodontist. Sometimes, your neighboring teeth suffer an additional, unnoticed injury that can only be detected by a thorough dental exam.

The Three Most Common Types Of Dental And Facial Trauma
While there are a variety of causes of dental and facial trauma, sports accidents are still considered to be the primary, number one factor, followed by motor vehicle accidents. When a person experiences dental or facial injuries, it typically impacts one (or more) of the facial structure. Let’s explore these below.
Mouth And Tooth Injuries
Many dental injuries involve breaking or chipping teeth and often involve a multi-step approach to treatment. For example, if tooth loss occurs, you may need an oral surgeon to repair a bone fracture or perform a bone graft, while more minor injuries may require restorative dentistry.
Bone Traumas
Bone traumas affect facial areas around the cheeks, jaws, eyes, and nose, so it’s vital to work with an oral surgeon who can not only treat the bone trauma and provide regular function back to the area but one that is also able to maintain your aesthetics.
Soft Tissue Injuries
Soft tissue injuries can occur as lacerations to the facial area. It’s important to address these and have an oral surgeon evaluate them, because if the laceration is deep enough, it may affect salivary glands and nerves.
