Orofacial trauma is on the rise and presents a growing public health problem. They occur in deciduous and permanent dentition, and since they affect children and adolescents, they require special attention to allow proper eruption of permanent teeth as well as their complete growth and development. Luxation injuries are the most common in deciduous dentition, while fractures are more common in permanent dentition. Urgent care of traumatized teeth includes care at the scene of the accident as well as care in the clinic. The schedule of clinical procedures includes taking a medical history, providing first aid, caring for dental trauma and long-term follow-up of the patient. The decision on the type of therapy is made based on the type of injury, the time elapsed from the onset of the injury to the medical care, the stage of root development, the condition of the pulp and the patient's cooperation. After the treatment of primary injuries, long-term follow-up is required for possible subsequent negative consequences. The condition of the pulp and root maturation are monitored clinically and radiologically. Since the outcome of the therapy itself is also influenced by the reaction at the scene of the accident, it is necessary to educate the population about measures for the prevention and care of traumatic dental injuries.
