Abstract
The prevalence of traumatic injuries to the primary dentition ranges from 11%?30%, but the incidence of dilacerated permanent teeth is very low and disproportionate to high prevalence of trauma. Hence, traumatic injuries to the primary dentition are unlikely to account for all cases of dilaceration and especially those of primary teeth themselves. An idiopathic developmental disturbance to deciduous dentition is proposed as another possible cause in cases that have no clear evidence of traumatic injury. The prime objective of the present article is to discuss cases of dilaceration in the deciduous anterior teeth and review the previous studies on dilacerations of the deciduous dentition.
