Abstract

The cause, incidence, and prevention of trauma to teeth are highlighted from a contemporary aspect. Causative factors have become more diverse, and the incidence of trauma has become almost equal in both sexes. Newer areas identified include domestic violence, enhanced sporting activities, and an increase in adverse societal manifestations. Prevention, with a focus on education and awareness of diverse populations, is discussed.
