ABSTRACT: Over the centuries teeth have been a focal point of a smile - in some cultures teeth have been adorned, in others ritually mutilated, and later with the ravages of dental caries particularly in Europe and Britain, teeth became a source of disfigurement and pain. In modern society, the psychological impact of dental trauma has replaced dental caries as a major contributing factor for repressed smiles. The prevention of dental injuries is essential, but if necessary, the management of dental trauma requires a biological approach, with the application of appropriate therapeutic measures when indicated. The aim of sympathetic management should be the restitution of oral health which is usually reflected by an unrestrained and confident smile.
