It is common for the kids to get hurt during any form of sports, especially contact sports, and face is the main area of damage. As dentists, we have to deal with patients with various kinds of fractures of tooth and facial bones.Dental trauma in sports is the major linking channel between the sports and dentistry. The combined impact of violence, traffic accidents, and sporting activities has contributed to the establishment of traumatic dental injuries as a public dental health problem. Sports dentistry is the prevention of oral/facial athletic injuries and related oral diseases and manifestations. It has two major components: First is the treatment of orofacial injuries and the second is the prevention of sports-related orofacial injuries. To provide comprehensive care, a dentist must be knowledgeable and adept in the areas of oral surgery, endodontics, operative dentistry, orthodontics, hospital dentistry, and patient behavior management. This book is the result of my in-depth research into the field of sports dentistry.
