Method and Requirements: Data were obtained by a retrospective review of the pathological reports of patients aged 0-16 who apply to the Faculty of Dentistry of Erciyes University between 2006-2017 years. The data includes information about the patient’s age, gender, histopathological diagnosis and the area where the injuries are observed. Patients are divided into 3 age groups: 0–4, 5-10, 11–16. Oral lesions were studied in 4 main groups, including cystic/psodocistic, tumor-like, inflammatory/reactive and other lesions. The majority of pathological injury occur in the age group 11-16 and the age group at which the minimum pathological injury is identified is 0-4 The most common injuries in the pediatric population were cystic/psedocistic (47%) injuries. Cystic/psedocistic lesions were followed by inflammatory/reactive lesions(23%) and tumor-like lesions(19%) and others(11%) respectively, with a percentage of 29.68%, the radical cyst was identified as the most common pediatric oral pathology. Radicular cyst follows, respectively, the monitoring cyst, the pyogenic granuloma. Oral pathological conditions can be observed in a wide variety and prevalence in children, which may differ from adults in terms of symptoms and clinical course. The understanding of the epidemic data of pediatric oral injuries by children’s dentists is important for the correct and distinctive diagnosis.
