Article Synopsis
  • Dental avulsion injuries in children significantly impact their quality of life, with the study focusing on the Pediatric Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (POQL) scores from the children's perspective.
  • The cross-sectional study involved 40 children aged 8-14 who had experienced dental avulsion and compared their scores to 40 healthy peers, revealing higher POQL scores in girls, particularly in social and emotional aspects.
  • The findings suggest that while the repositioning of avulsed teeth does not significantly affect POQL scores, emotional well-being is still impacted, highlighting the need for psychological support following such injuries to mitigate negative effects.
