As part of this study, the prevalence and severity of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content> in permanent teeth among seventh\u2010 and tenth\u2010grade schoolchildren were evaluated.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Schoolchildren were examined in four schools in the capital city of Tbilisi, two schools in two other major cities, and one school in four additional villages. In addition to demographical data, the following parameters were collected and recorded: Overjet (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">OJ<\/jats:styled-content>), lip competence, number and type\/location of the teeth with <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content> and Type of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content>. The study population comprised of children aged 12 (seventh grade) and 15 years old (10th grade).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 823 7th\u2010 and 10th\u2010grade schoolchildren were examined. The overall prevalence of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content> among Georgian population was found to be 10.4% (86 children). The prevalence of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content> was greater in the older age cohort (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05). Lip posture did not seem to have a marked effect on <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content>. Children with an <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">OJ<\/jats:styled-content> greater than 5 mm were more likely to present with dental injuries compared to children with an <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">OJ<\/jats:styled-content> equal to or smaller than 5 mm (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05). Children from rural areas presented with greater prevalence of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content> compared to their urban counterparts (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05). The maxillary central incisors were the most common teeth to be affected by trauma accounting for 85.2% of the <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content> cases. Enamel fracture was the main type of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content> (91.3%).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The prevalence of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content> in Georgian schoolchildren, as presented in this survey, population was found to be rather moderate and involved mainly minor superficial injuries.
