Opis

The most common type of orofacial injury received while participating in sports is a dental injury. In light of the growing popularity of contact sports and the encouragement to engage at a young age, the dentistry profession's involvement in the prevention of dental and other orofacial sporting injuries has grown more significantly. Preventing oral/facial athletic injuries, as well as linked oral diseases and symptoms, is the goal of sports dentistry. Sports dentistry is frequently overlooked or overlooked until an accident occurs. Sports dentistry is the treatment of oral injuries caused by sports, such as fractured or missing teeth, or even trauma to the jaw. It also includes comprehensive teaching on how to avoid such accidents, as well as the use of correct dental equipment to prevent oral injuries during sports. It is typical for children to get injured while participating in sports, particularly contact sports, and the face is the most commonly injured area. Furthermore, sports dentistry addresses topics such as the use of smokeless tobacco, nutritional concerns such as the erosive potential of sports beverages, and substance misuse in sports person.
