Treatment of a traumatic tooth avulsion

A B Konis. N Y State Dent J. 1995 Aug-Sep.

Abstract

The traumatic avulsion of a tooth presents unique and challenging difficulties in patient management. The successful replantation of the avulsed tooth is influenced by many factors occurring from the moment of injury to the moment of replantation. Immediate and decisive treatment is essential in this time period to avoid subsequent inflammatory root resorption and ankylosis.
