The aim of this study was tocollect and analyze data about incidence of TDIs in primary dentition and to assess the types and causes of TDIs in a group of preschool children attending dental hospital of Cairo University. Subjects and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out over a period of one year to determine incidence of TDIs in primary teeth withsample consisted of all patients up to 7 years old attending the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Cairo University.Clinical and radiographic examinations were conducted on each patient.The type of dental injury was recorded according to Andreasenclassification. Results:A total of 321 patients, 194(60.4%) boys and 127(39.6%) girlscame with 547 traumatized primary teeth. The highest frequency was among 2-4 years children as they accounted for 39.2%. Falls were the most common cause of TDIs accounting for 74.4%.The most common type of injury in dental fractures was uncomplicated fractures involving enamel and dentin (35.9%).Avulsion was the most common luxation injury (27.4%). Conclusion: In spite ofthe low incidence of dental in preschool childrenattending the Department of Pediatric Dentistry,TDI in primary dentition should receive careful attention.
