Abstract:
Traumatic dental injury (TDI), one of the common dental diseases, is defined as acute injuries to tooth hard tissues, dental pulp and/or periodontal tissues caused by sudden forces. Based on the Guidelines for the Management of TDI by International Association of Dental Traumatology (2012) and the Recommended Guidelines of the American Association of Endodontists for the Treatment of TDI (2013) for the permanent teeth, and combined with the authors' clinical experiences, the contemporary classification and clinical perspective of TDI were introduced in detail. Dental clinicians should understand and master the international guidelines for the management of TDI, including proper diagnosis, standardized treatments and regular follow-up, so as to obtain the favorable outcomes.

Tooth Anatomy
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or...
Teeth
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin...
Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
