Locker, D. - Few population-based studies of traumatic dental injury in adults have been undertaken. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence and severity of injuries to the mouth and teeth among adults aged 18-50?years living in the Canadian province of Ontario. The results of this self-report study indicate that dental trauma constitutes a significant health issue among adults and that a minority may be injury prone. Health promotion programmes to reduce the incidence of injury among lower socioeconomic groups are needed since these have high rates of injury and the lowest rate of receipt of treatment
