Abstract :

Aim: to evaluate the level of knowledge about dental trauma injury and first aid skills among teachers of educational institutions by means of a survey in Moscow, Russia. Materials and methods: A questionnaire, consisting of 4 parts and including 20 questions, including questions from the category of own experience in working with this problem, awareness of the problem of complete dislocation of the tooth, first aid skills and motivation for training. Several questions have multiple answers. The survey accepted 56 people from 1 educational institution and 66 pediatric students from the university. Results: the study indicated the knowledge level of teachers and students to be quite low. Early help reduces the risk of complications. The priority treatment provided within the educational institution will seriously affect the increase in the number of positive outcomes. Timely assistance significantly reduces the risk of developing complications that can negatively affect the psycho-emotional health of the child in adolescence. Early diagnosis, prophylaxis or treatment of dentate abnormalities at an early age help to avoid further progression of pathologies, save material means and time. Conclusions: the authors identified a lack of first aid skills in working with children who received an acute tooth injury, as a result of this, the need was revealed to train teachers of school educational institutions and to train medical students of the speciality «Pediatrics» in theoretical and practical foundations for this group of pathologies, to conduct further clinical studies that will improve the epidemic situation around the world and in Russia in particular.
Keywords: dental trauma injury, teachers, educational organization, first aid, pediatrics.
