International guidelines strongly recommend the use of clinical photography, yet its use among pediatric dentists has not been consistently evaluated across countries.

Most respondents (95.3%) considered photography important for documenting TDIs, but only 23.5% reported always using it. Smartphones were the most common tool (65.1%), while fewer used DSLR cameras (26.7%). Major barriers included uncooperative children (40.2%) and time constraints (27.4%). Formal training in photography was reported by 41.6% of participants. Multivariate regression showed that awareness of international guidelines (OR\u2009=\u20092.94; CI: 1.71\u20135.18,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001) and high perceived importance (OR\u2009=\u20094.63; CI: 1.56\u201318.21,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.005) significantly predicted frequent use. Participants who were aware of IADT guidelines were almost three times more likely to use photography routinely, and those who perceived it as highly important were over four times more likely to do so. Thematic analysis highlighted ethical concerns, including uncertainty regarding parental consent and data storage, as well as training gaps and calls for standardized protocols.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Photography is essential for recording pediatric dental trauma, but is inconsistently used.
