At the same time, at children the self-preservative instinct and soft structure of bone tissues is not developed yet. Injuries of teeth at children are most often observed at the age of 1-3 years (tooth dislocation is most characteristic) and at secondary dentition (at the age of 7-12 years).

Injuries of teeth are subdivided on:
