What Counts as a Traumatic Dental Injury?

Traumatic injuries can affect the teeth, gums, jawbone, or surrounding tissues. Common types of dental trauma include:

  • Knocked-out (avulsed) teeth
  • Loose or displaced teeth
  • Chipped, cracked, or fractured teeth
  • Injuries to the lips, gums, or jaw
  • Root fractures or nerve damage

Even if pain is minimal, any impact to the mouth should be evaluated promptly to prevent long-term damage.
