Trauma of the oral region occurs frequently and makes up 5% of all injuries for which people seek treatment in all dental clinics and hospitals in a country [2]. High-risk age groups for dental and facial trauma were 10-18 years and 19-28 years, which may be attributed to the fact this age-group usually has more intense social interaction and sports activities [3]. The teeth most commonly affected by trauma are the maxillary central incisors [3,4]. The most frequent types of permanent teeth fractures are enamel fractures, enamel and dentine fractures, and enamel and dentine fractures with pulp involvement [6]
