Abstract: Introducere. Infecţiile odontogene la copii reprezintă o problemă frecventă în practica stomatologică pediatrică, fiind una dintre principalele cauze de prezentare în serviciile de urgenţă. De obicei, acestea apar ca urmare a evoluţiei cariei dentare netratate şi pot duce la complicaţii locale şi sistemice severe. Scop. Analiza incidenţei, particularităţilor clinice şi a conduitei terapeutice în infecţiile odontogene la copii, având drept scop identificarea formelor de manifestare predominante. Material şi metode. Studiul retrospectiv include 1488 de pacienţi diagnosticaţi cu infecţii odontogene, internaţi în Clinica „Emilian Coţaga”, în perioada 28 aprilie 2024 - 23 aprilie 2025. Au fost analizate fişele medicale ale pacienţilor: date anamnestice, rezultatele investigaţiilor clinice şi paraclinice. Datele au fost procesate statistic în Microsoft Excel. Rezultate. Din totalul de 2.584 de pacienţi internaţi, 1.488 (57,6%) au fost diagnosticaţi cu infecţii odontogene. Incidenţa după criteriul de gen prevalează în rândul băieţilor - 62,0%, iar în rândul fetelor - 38,0%. Distribuţia formelor clinice a fost următoarea: osteomielită a maxilarelor de origine infecţioasă - 95,8%, celulită/abces oral - 2,08%, parodontită apicală - 0,07%, chist radicular inflamator - 0,2%, traumatisme asociate cu risc de infecţie - 1,8%. În 97,9% dintre cazurile de infecţii odontogene la copii, s-a efectuat incizia şi drenajul leziunii în cavitatea bucală ca formă principală de tratament de urgenţă. Concluzii. Infecţiile odontogene la copii reprezintă o patologie frecvent întâlnită, cu forme variate, dintre care osteomielita de origine infecţioasă a fost cea mai prevalentă. Majoritatea copiilor au necesitat tratament chirurgical de urgenţă prin incizie şi drenaj, evidenţiind importanţa intervenţiei.
Introduction. Childhood odontogenic infections are a common problem in pediatric dental practice and are one of the leading causes of presentation to emergency departments. They usually occur as a result of the progression of untreated dental caries and can lead to serious local and systemic complications. Objective. The incidence, clinical features and therapeutic management of odontogenic infections in children were analyzed in order to identify the predominant forms of manifestation. Material and methods. The retrospective study includes 1488 patients diagnosed with odontogenic infections, hospitalized in Emilian Cotaga Clinic, between April 28, 2024 and April 23, 2025. The patients' medical records were analyzed: anamnestic data, results of clinical and paraclinical investigations. The data were statistically processed in Microsoft Excel. Results. Out of a total of 2,584 hospitalized patients, 1,488 (57.6%) were diagnosed with odontogenic infections. Of these, 62.0% were boys and 38.0% girls. The most frequent clinical form was infectious osteomyelitis of the jaws, accounting for 95.8% of cases, followed by oral cellulitis or abscess (2.08%), trauma with infection risk (1.8%), inflammatory radicular cysts (0.2%), and apical periodontitis (0.07%). In 97.9% of cases, surgical treatment was required, consisting mainly of incision and intraoral drainage of the lesion. Prompt intervention was essential to prevent the development of local or systemic complications. Conclusion. Odontogenic infections in children are a common pathology with various forms, of which osteomyelitis of infectious origin was the most prevalent. Most children required emergency surgical treatment by incision and drainage, emphasizing the importance of prompt intervention.
