This issue is a result of the work of leading figures in the world of dental trauma and based on the presentations given at the World Congress on Dental Traumatology (WCDT) that was held in Tokyo, Japan, in July 2024. The issue provides a diverse overview of practical issues that would benefit all of us, who are working with dental trauma patients. The papers cover a wide range of topics starting with the proper documentation of traumatic dental injuries [<span>1</span>]. Documentation and record keeping are of utmost importance in the long-term handling of trauma cases [<span>2, 3</span>]. Well-informed documentation will help with progress and healing evaluation and can be valuable tool for communication with patients and colleagues. Globally, on a larger scale, this will enable better data collection and promotion of public policies and services [<span>4, 5</span>].</p><p>This issue further presents a thorough and multi-angle views on the management of injuries in primary and young permanent teeth [<span>6-8</span>]. These cases are often very challenging and require comprehensive understanding and multi-disciplinary approaches as well as a long-term plan for follow-up and identification of possible complications [<span>9-12</span>]. Some of the possible complications and the ways to mitigate and handle them are also an important portion of this special issue [<span>13-15</span>].</p><p>Additionally, in this issue, there are important reports on the interesting phenomenon of transient apical breakdown (TAB) that was not vastly investigated and explored yet [<span>16</span>] as well as the examination of new digital technology applications for auto-transplantation of teeth [<span>17</span>].
