In addition, little data are available regarding their characteristics. The aim of this epidemiological study was to determine the prevalence, types, and characteristics of occupational traumatic dental injuries (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content>s) in a large working community.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Work\u2010related <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content>s that occurred during the period between 2011 and 2013 in the District of Genoa (Northwest of Italy, 0.86\u00a0million inhabitants) were analyzed.

The prevalence was 5.6\u2030 of the total amount of occupational trauma. The highest prevalence was found in the fourth and fifth decades of life (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">OR<\/jats:styled-content>=3.6, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a0.001), and males were injured more often than females (70.5% vs 29.5%, <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">OR<\/jats:styled-content>=2.8, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a0.001). Service and office workers represented 52% of the sample, and construction\/farm\/factory workers and craftsmen were 48%. <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TDI<\/jats:styled-content>s involved only teeth and surrounding tissue in 66% of cases, or in combination with another maxillofacial injury in 34%.
