All the contributors share a commitment to the principles and practice of evidence-based health care. They approach this subject from a variety of viewpoints. There are examples of best practices based on a high level of evidence, and there are also examples of how to proceed when high-quality evidence is lacking. Due to the fact that the treatment approach in itself is usually traumatogenic, treatment principles for traumatized teeth become critical. In the case of some trauma entities, such as concussion, subluxation, and some injuries to the primary dentition, observation and follow-up is the only treatment needed. In other situations, repositioning and splinting procedures characterize treatment. Techniques for the reduction of tooth dislocations include immediate digital repositioning and orthodontic or surgical repositioning. Recent research suggests that the selection of treatment modality should be very specific and related to preinjury or injury factors to optimize healing. The purpose of this issue is to provide the clinician, whether in a dental practice or emergency service of a hospital, with an understanding of acute dental trauma, preventive strategies, and current treatment approaches. In that regard, the articles follow a sequence of medical and physical evaluation, classification and biology of traumatic injuries to the primary and permanent dentition and their supporting structures, preventive strategies, and acute and long-term treatment modalities. In most cases, a traumatic event involves more than the dentition and its supporting structures. Therefore, the dental clinician must be able to evaluate systemic effects of the injury. In the past decade, better understanding of the biology of the dental pulp and the use of new materials and techniques have opened new possibilities for management of pulpal exposures. Injuries to the alveolus, maxilla, and/or mandible complicate healing and need longer and more customized treatment plans. These topics are fully covered here. Acute dental trauma implies severe pain and psychological impact for many patients. The choice of treatment may be different for injuries to primary and permanent dentition depending on several factors, including type of injury, age, and tooth type. In the likely event that most dentists will end up treating traumatic injuries on an emergency basis, the astute clinician will develop a dental trauma kit for such situations. The dental clinicians must also provide information as to the prevention of dental injuries, including accident-prone sports activities where mouth guards could be of value. Several articles in this issue deal with these subjects. -- Contents: Preface (Sami M.A. Chogle, Gerald A.
