ABSTRACT

Dental trauma in 7-year-old patients presents complex challenges due to the transitional nature of mixed dentition. This review analyzes the clinical implications of specific traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) such as avulsion, intrusion, and crown-root fractures, focusing on their impact on future prosthetic rehabilitation. Evidence from current literature emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis, age-appropriate prosthetic planning, and individualized treatment strategies that account for craniofacial growth. Integration of pediatric prosthodontics into trauma management protocols improves long-term outcomes in terms of both function and psychosocial well-being.
