Q

tx lateral luxation

permanent

A

Aim: To reposition and splint a displaced tooth to facilitate pulp and periodontal ligament healing.

Rinse the exposed part of the root surface with saline before repositioning.

Apply a local anesthesia.

Reposition the tooth with forceps or with digital pressure to disengage it from its bony lock and gently reposition it into its original location. In case of manual repositioning, palpate the gingiva to feel the apex of the tooth. Use one finger to push downwards over the apical end of the tooth, then use another finger or thumb to push the tooth back into its socket.

Stabilize the tooth for 4 weeks using a flexible splint
* If there is breakdown/fracture of the marginal bone or alveolar socket wall, splint for an additional 4 weeks.

Teeth with incomplete root formation
* Spontaneous revascularization may occur.
* If the pulp becomes necrotic and there are signs of infection related external resorption (inflammatory resorption), root canal treatment should be initiated as soon as possible.

Teeth with complete root formation
* The pulp will likely become necrotic.
* Root canal treatment should be initiated in order to prevent infection related resorption.

Q

first aid for avulsed permanent tooth

A

An avulsed permanent tooth is one of the few real emergency situations in dentistry

If a tooth is avulsed, make sure it is a permanent tooth
* primary teeth should not be replanted

Keep the patient calm.

Find the tooth and pick it up by the crown (the white part). Avoid touching the root.

  • If the tooth is dirty, rinse it gently in milk, saline or in the patient’s saliva and encourage the patient/parent to replant the tooth in the original position in the jaw.
    Bite on a handkerchief to hold the replanted tooth in position.

If immediate replantation is not possible, place the tooth in a suitable storage medium available at the emergency site. This should be done quickly to avoid dehydration of the root surface.
* E.g. milk, Hank’s balanced salt solution, saliva (after spitting into a glass for instance) or saline.
* water is a poor medium, it is better than leaving the tooth to air-dry.

Seek emergency dental treatment immediately.

On arrival ask time out of socket – imp for tx

important considerations for avulsion of permanent teeth management
open V closed apex Extra Alveolar Dry Time (time out of socket)
26
avulsed permanent tooth with open apex replanted prior to pt arrived at dentist tx
leave the tooth in place Apply local anesthesia, if necessary, preferably with no vasoconstrictor. * Clean the area with water spray, saline or chlorhexidine. * Suture gingival laceration, if present. Verify normal position of the replanted tooth both clinically and radiographically. Apply a flexible splint for 2 weeks Administer systemic antibiotics (if tooth avulsed in environment could be contaminated e.g. soil) * Amoxycillin or penicillin is the first choice (for 7 days at the appropriate dose for the patient’s age and weight). Alternative antibiotics should be considered for patients with an allergy to penicillin. * If the avulsed tooth has been in contact with soil and if tetanus coverage is uncertain, contact a physician for a tetanus booster. The goal for replanting still-developing (immature) teeth in children is to allow for possible revascularization of the tooth pulp. If that does not occur, apexification, pulp revitalization/revascularization is recommended.
27
follow up for immature permanent tooth avulsion
For immature teeth, root canal treatment should be avoided unless there is clinical or radiographic evidence of pulp necrosis and infection * potential for spontaneous healing to occur in the form of new connective tissue with a vascular supply - allowing continued root development and maturation Splint removal and clinical and radiographic control after 2 weeks. Clinical and radiographic control after 4 weeks, 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and then yearly for at least 5 years.
28
tx for avulsed immature permanent tooth that has been kept in storage medium for less than 60mins (EADT<60)
Clean the root surface and apical foramen with a stream of saline. Place or leave the tooth in a storage medium while taking the history, examining the patient clinically and radiographically and preparing the patient for the replantation. Administer local anesthesia, prefereably without vasoconstrictor. Examine the alveolar socket. If there is a fracture of the socket wall, reposition it with a suitable instrument. Irrigate the socket with saline. Replant the tooth slowly with slight digital pressure. Suture gingival lacerations, especially in the cervical area. Verify normal position of the replanted tooth clinically and radiographically. Apply a flexible splint for up to 2 weeks Administer systemic antibiotics. * Amoxycillin or penicillin is the first choice (for 7 days at the appropriate dose for the patient’s age and weight). Alternative antibiotics should be considered for patients with an allergy to penicillin. * If the avulsed tooth has been in contact with soil and if tetanus coverage is uncertain, contact a physician for a tetanus booster. | PDL viable but compromised
29
what is the goal in replanting a permanent immature tooth
possible revascularization of the tooth pulp. If that does not occur, apexification, pulp revitalization/revascularization is recommended. * risk of infection-related root resorption should be weighed up against the chances of revascularization. * Such resorption is very rapid in children. If revascularization does not occur, root canal treatment may be recommended.
30
tx for permanent avulsed tooth with EADT >60mins
Clean the root surface and apical foramen with a stream of saline. * Place or leave the tooth in a storage medium while taking the history, examining the patient clinically and radiographically and preparing the patient for the replantation. Administer local anesthesia, prefereably without vasoconstrictor. * Examine the alveolar socket. If there is a fracture of the socket wall, reposition it with a suitable instrument. * Irrigate the socket with saline. Replant the tooth slowly with slight digital pressure. Suture gingival lacerations, especially in the cervical area. Verify normal position of the replanted tooth clinically and radiographically. Apply a flexible splint for up to 2 weeks Administer systemic antibiotics. Amoxycillin or penicillin is the first choice (for 7 days at the appropriate dose for the patient’s age and weight). Alternative antibiotics should be considered for patients with an allergy to penicillin. * If the avulsed tooth has been in contact with soil and if tetanus coverage is uncertain, contact a physician for a tetanus booster. | EADT>60 likely non viable PDL cells
31
concern is permanent tooth EADT>60
Delayed replantation has a poor long-term prognosis. * PDL will be necrotic and cannot be expected to heal. The goal in delayed replantation is to restore the tooth to the dentition for esthetic, functional and psychological reasons and to maintain alveolar contour. The possible outcome will be ankylosis related resorption
32
why is replantation always advised for permanent avulsed teeth
keeps other tx options open future - restores aesthetics, function temporarily whilst maintaining alevolar bone contour, width and height advise pt poor long term prognosis * infraoccluded - may need decoronated or XLA varies with pt age, growth etc - unpredictable
33
apical barrier formation in open apex permanent tooth which has pulpal necrosis
Mineral trioxide aggregate 5mm of MTA should be placed at the apical end of the root. * Placement can be aided by use of a microscope. * Placement is carried out using obtura probes, disposable MTA carriers or experimentally using a venflon. Wait at least 24 hours for MTA to harden then obturate with a heated GP system
34
tx mature permanent tooth avulsion replanted prior to attending
Leave the tooth in place. Clean the area with water spray, saline or chlorhexidine. * Administer local anethesia if necessary, preferably with no vasoconstrictor. * If the tooth were replanted in the wrong socket or rotated, reposition the tooth into the proper location up to 48 hours after the traumatic incident. * Suture gingival lacerations, if present. Verify normal position of the replanted tooth both clinically and radiographically. Apply a flexible splint for 2 weeks Administer systemic antibiotics. Amoxycillin or penicillin is the first choice (for 7 days at the appropriate dose for the patient’s age and weight). Alternative antibiotics should be considered for patients with an allergy to penicillin. * If the avulsed tooth has been in contact with soil, and if tetanus coverage is uncertain, refer to physician for a tetanus booster. **Initiate root canal treatment within 2 weeks after replantation and before splint removal**
35
follow up for closed apex avulsed tooth
Root canal treatment within 2 weeks after replantation. Place calcium hydroxide as an intra-canal medicament for up to 1 month followed by root canal filling with an acceptable material. Alternatively an antibiotic-corticosteroid paste may be placed immediately or shortly after replantation and left for at least 2 weeks. Splint removal and clinical and radiographic control after 2 weeks. Clinical and radiographic control after 4 weeks, 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and then yearly for at least 5 years
36
tx closed apex avulsed tooth EADT>60mins
clean the root surface and apical forament with saline (agigtate) and leave in storage medium whilst take history and do exam Clean the area with water spray, saline or chlorhexidine. * Administer local anethesia if necessary, preferably with no vasoconstrictor. * irrigate socket with saline * replant tooth slowly with digit pressure * Suture gingival lacerations, if present. Verify normal position of the replanted tooth both clinically and radiographically. Apply a flexible splint for 2 weeks Administer systemic antibiotics. Amoxycillin or penicillin is the first choice (for 7 days at the appropriate dose for the patient’s age and weight). Alternative antibiotics should be considered for patients with an allergy to penicillin. * If the avulsed tooth has been in contact with soil, and if tetanus coverage is uncertain, refer to physician for a tetanus booster. **Initiate root canal treatment within 2 weeks after replantation and before splint removal**

emergency tx for crown root fracture with pulp involvement
As an emergency treatment, a temporary stabilization of a loose segment to adjacent teeth can be performed until a definitive treatment plan is made. In young patients with open apices, it is advantageous to preserve pulp vitality by a partial pulpotomy. Rubber dam isolation is challenging but should be tried. Non-setting calcium hydroxide or non-staining calcium silicate cements are suitable materials to be placed on the pulp wound. In patients with mature root development, removal of the pulp is usually indicated. Cover the exposed dentin with glass ionomer or use a bonding agent and composite resin.

Monitoring the status of the pulp is recommended. * The pulp sensibility test is usually negative for root fractures except for teeth with minor displacements. The test is important in assessing risk of healing complications. A positive sensibility test at the initial examination indicates a significantly reduced risk of later pulp necrosis. Periapical, occlusal and 2 eccentric exposures. * An occlusal exposure is optimal for locating root fractures in the apical and middle third. Bisecting angle exposure or 90 degree angulation exposure is needed to locate the fractures in the cervical third of the root. * In cases where the above radiographs provide insufficient information for treatment planning, CBCT can be considered to determine the location, extent and direction of the fracture. root fracture line is usually visible. The fracture involves the root of the tooth and is in a horizontal or diagonal plane

root fracture tx
Rinse exposed root surface with saline before repositioning. If displaced, reposition the coronal segment of the tooth as soon as possible. Check that correct position has been reached radiographically. Stabilize the tooth with a flexible splint for 4 weeks * If the root fracture is near the cervical area of the tooth stabilization is beneficial for a longer period of time (up to 4 months). No endodontic treatment should be started at the emergency visit. * Monitor healing for at least 1 year to determine pulpal status. If pulp necrosis develops, then root canal treatment of the coronal tooth segment to the fracture line is indicated. As root fracture lines are frequently oblique, determination of root canal length may be challenging. An apexification approach may be needed. The apical segment rarely undergoes pathological changes that require treatment.

root fracture tx in mature teeth when fracture line extends cervically above alveolar crest
removal of the coronal fragment, followed by root canal treatment and restoration with the post-retained crown will likely be required. Additional procedures such as orthodontic extrusion of the apical segment, crown lengthening surgery, surgical extrusion or even extraction may be required as future treatment options
84
follow up for root fracture
Clinical and radiographic follow-up after 4 weeks, 6-8 weeks, 6 months, 1 year and then yearly for at least 5 years. For teeth with cervical fractures, an additional follow-up and splint removal after 4 months.
85
alveolar fracture
A fracture of the alveolar process; may or may not involve the alveolar socket. Teeth associated with alveolar fractures are characterized by mobility of the alveolar process; several teeth typically will move as a unit when mobility is checked. Occlusal interference is often present.
86
dx alveolar fracture
Displacement of an alveolar segment. An occlusal change due to misalignment of the fractured alveolar segment is often noted. TTP Entire segment mobile and moves as unit Negative to sensibility tests Occlusal, periapical and eccentric exposure. * In cases where the above radiographs provide insufficient information for treatment planning, a panoramic radiograph and/or CBCT can be considered to determine the location, extent and direction of the fracture. * vertical line of the fracture may run along the PDL or in the septum. The horizontal line may be located at any level from the marginal bone to the basal bone. An associated root fracture may be present.
87
tx alveolar fracture
Apply local anesthesia Manual repositioning or repositioning using forceps of the displaced segment Clean the area with water spray, saline or chlorhexidine Suture gingival lacerations if present Apply flexible splint for stabilisation of the segment for 4 weeks Root canal treatment is contraindicated at the emergency visit Monitor pulp condition of all teeth involved to determine if or when endodontic treatment becomes necessary.
