Abstract: Traumatic injuries to the primary dentition present special problems and the management is often different as compared with
the permanent dentition. The International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) has developed a consensus statement after a
review of the dental literature and group discussions. Experienced researchers and clinicians from various specialities were included in
the task group. In cases where the data did not appear conclusive, recommendations were based on the consensus opinion or
majority decision of the task group. Finally, the IADT board members were giving their opinion and approval. The primary goal of
these guidelines is to delineate an approach for the immediate or urgent care for management of primary teeth injuries. The IADT
cannot and does not guarantee favorable outcomes from strict adherence to the guidelines, but believe that their application can maximize
the chances of a positive outcome. (Dental Traumatology 2012;28:174182; doi: 10.1111/j.1600-9657.2012.01146.x) Accepted March 26, 2012
