title: Oral trauma to the preschool child.
abstract: In this article I stressed some of the points I consider to be important for dealing with oral trauma in the preschool child. The only areas that I thought should be approached in detail were ones that deal with specific techniques with which you may not be familiar. I hope that some of the suggestions will be of help to the dentist dealing with the sometimes difficult situation of treating a preschool child.
