Abstract
The prevalence of traumatized primary anterior teeth was studied in 965 5-yr-olds attending compulsory kindergartens in West Jerusalem, Israel, in 1971. The prevalence of children with traumatized teeth was 11.1%. No difference between males and females was found. In most cases only 1 tooth was affected. The tooth most frequently affected was the maxillary central incisor. The most common type of fracture was that of enamel with or without dentin.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
