“…In the present study RTA was the single highest contributing factor, similar to various studies conducted in various states of India [6,8,9,16,19]. In the studies from developed countries like Greece [20], New Zealand [21], United Kingdom [22] RTA as the causative factor was found to be low. Studies from developing countries like Nigeria [23], Jordan [24], and Libya [10] had similar contribution of RTA as in the present study.…”

“…In the present study, 52.6 % of the patients were treated by open surgical treatment modality alone, in which open reduction and internal fixation modality was by far the most common treatment method employed. The earlier studies conducted in developing nations like Brazil [32], Nigeria [27] and Jordan [22] have shown significant lower percentage of open surgical treatment method employment, when compared to developed countries like Netherlands [18], New Zealand [21] or UAE [12]. This difference again might be because of lower socio-economic living of people of developing countries to bear the financial burden involved in open surgical treatments, compared to better socio-economic status of developed countries.…”

Preference for open surgical treatment along with increasing trend of supplemental intermaxillary fixation was found, which prompts us to check for the underlying reason behind this, which could be the increasing number of displaced and comminuted fracture cases or the decreasing efficiency of open reduction treatment rendered. Latter reason prompts to re-evaluate the existing surgical techniques and expertise of the practicing surgeons.

“…The prevalence of traumatic crown injuries (TCIs) has been evaluated in several countries; and the association with socioeconomic, clinical, and psychosocial indicators has been demonstrated in preschool children 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 . Data from the latest national population-based oral health study showed that 20.5% of children, aged 12 years, had TCI in at least one incisor 9 .…”

The aim of this study was to assess trends in traumatic crown injuries (TCIs), their prevalence, and association with socioeconomic and clinical factors in preschool children over a 5-year period. A series of cross-sectional surveys was conducted in Santa Maria, Brazil, on children attending a National Day of Children's Vaccination. The same protocol was used in all surveys conducted in 2008, 2010, and 2013. Clinical examinations were performed to evaluate types of traumatic crown injuries using the O'brien index. A semi-structured questionnaire was answered by the parents. It provided information about several socioeconomic factors as well as the parents' perception of their child's oral health. The chi-square for trends test was used to verify changes in TCI prevalence throughout the years. The association between socioeconomic and clinical factors with TCI was assessed by the Poisson regression analysis. A total of 1,640 children were examined. The prevalence of TCIs decreased significantly from 2008 to 2013 (10.12%; p < 0.001). Central incisors were the most vulnerable to injury, independent of the year. Moreover, older children and those with inadequate lip coverage were more likely to present with some traumatic dental injury (p < 0.001). prevalence of traumatic crown injuries decreased following the years, however TCI remain an important subject to consider when planning oral health policies.

“…[5][6][7] Little research exists on the prevalence and any role alcohol may have in the pediatric trauma population. 2,8 In cases of pediatric maxillofacial injuries, studies recognizing alcohol involvement are few, 9,10 and in relation to the etiology and epidemiology of pediatric facial trauma, the presence and possible role of alcohol remains largely unknown.…”

The social, financial, and health implications of adult alcohol-related oral and maxillofacial trauma have been recognized for several years. Affordability and widespread accessibility of alcohol and issues of misuse in the pediatric trauma population have fostered concerns alcohol may be similarly implicated in young patients with orofacial trauma. The aim of this study was to review data of pediatric facial injuries at a regional maxillofacial unit, assess the prevalence of alcohol use, and review data of patients sustaining injury secondary to interpersonal violence. This study is a retrospective, 3-year review of a Regional Maxillofacial Unit (RMU) trauma database. Inclusion criterion was consecutive facial trauma patients under 16 years of age, referred to RMU for further assessment and/or management. Alcohol use and injuries sustained were reviewed. Of 1,192 pediatric facial trauma patients, 35 (2.9%) were associated with alcohol intake. A total of 145 (12.2%) alleged assault as the mechanism of injury, with older (12-15 years) (n = 129; 88.9%), male (n = 124; 85.5%) (p < 0.001) patients commonly involved and alcohol use implicated in 26 (17.9%) presentations. A proportion of vulnerable adolescents misuse alcohol to the risk of traumatic facial injury, and prospective research to accurately determine any role of alcohol in the pediatric trauma population is essential.
