what are the classification of trauma?
Injuries to the :
1. hard dental tissue and pulp
2. hard dental tissue, pulp and alveolar process
3. periodontal tissues
4. gingiva or oral mucosa
Hard dental tissues and pulp:
enamel infraction
enamel fracture
enamel-dentine fracture
complicated crown fracture
Injuries to the hard dental tissues, pulp and alveolar process:
crown root fractures
root fractures
fracture of alveolar socket wall
fracture of alveolar process
injuries to periodontal tissues:
concussion
subluxation
luxation (exrusion, lateral, intrusion)
avulsion
Injuries to gingiva or oral mucosa:
laceration
- tear
abrasion
- superficial wound,
- rubbing or scraping,
- raw, bleeding surface
contusion
General approach to managmenet of acute trauma?
remain calm
triage
- assess level of consciousness
- other injuires
- oro-facial injuries
clean
records and documentation
stabilise
treat
review
How to manage enamel fracture of primary dentition?
smooth sharp edges
restorative
How to manage enamel fracture of permanent dentition?
smooth sharp edges
restorative
Management of complicated primary dentition crown fracture?
pulp therapy
- direct pulp cap
- pulpotomy
- pulpectomy and obturation
Restoration with resin crown
Extraction
Management of complicated permanent dentition crown fracture?
Pulp therapy
- depends on health of the pulp and maturity of the apex and root walls
- direct pulp cap - mta
- pulpotomy
- non-vital pulp therapy
Restoration with resin crown
Management of root fracture: Primary
if no significant mobility of coronal fragment
- no immediate tx indicated then review
- splining not necessarily indicated

If displaced or very mobile coronal fragment
- extract the entire tooth
Management of permanent dentition root fracture?
if mobile coronal fragment
- rigid fixation(splint) upto 2 months
- recent - flexible fixation for 2-3 weeks

if fracture isat CEJ, exo of coronal fragment may be indicated. need to then consider root burial, ortho extrusion,exo of root
Types of healing of fractures?
healing with calcified tissue
healing with connective tissue
bone and connective tissue
granulation tissue
Types of healing of pulp?
revascularisation
necrosis
pulp canal obliteration
Management of concussion and sublexuation of primary and permanent?
observation only
splinting not indicated
soft diet
chlorhexidine
Management of primary dent luxation
Extrusive:
extraction is indicated

Lateral luxation:
if not excessivley mobile and if not in traumatic occlusion, leave to allow spontaneous repositioning
if excessive mobility or if in traumatic occlusion then extraction
Managemetn of permandent dent luxation?
disimpaction of luxated tooth
management of the alveolar fracture
reposition tooth
non-rigid splinting 10 - 14 days
probable RCT in mature teeth
Management of intrusion: Primary dent
do not extrude physicaly or orthodontically
– Direction of displacement
• If apex of primary tooth has been displaced palatally, into developing permanent tooth, extraction is indicated
• If apex of primary tooth has been displaced labially, away from developing permanent tooth, defer to severity of displacement criteria
• If apex has been displaced labially and has fractured the labial bone plate (as seen on lateral Mx film), extraction is indicated … virtually no chance of spontaneous eruption.
– Severity of displacement
• If less than half crown has been intruded, good chance of spontaneous eruption over the next three months … leave and monitor
• If half crown has been intruded, possibility of spontaneous eruption is reduced … allow time for spontaneous eruption, but consider extraction
• If more than 75% of crown has been intruded, possibility of spontaneous eruption is very low … extraction is indicated
Intrusion of permanent dentition

Management options?
passive re-eruption
surgical repositioning
orthodontic repositioning
Intrusion of permanent dentition

Management based on severity of intrusion?
< 3mm
- leave to re-erupt
3-6mm
- leave to re-erupt
- or apply traction to reposition
> 6mm
- surgical or ortho repositioning
Management of avulsion of primary dention
never reimplant
Management of avulsion of permament dentition
clean
reimplant
non-rigid splint 7-10 days
RCT
Avulsion of permandent dentition treatment considerations (factors)?
extra-alveolartime
storagemedium
stage of development
Types of injury to primary teeth which may injure developing permanent dentition?
intrusion
luxation
injury leading to primary tooth pulp death and nectrosis giving rise to apical periodontitis
Types of injury that may be caused to the permandnet successor?
enamel hypomineralisation
enamel hypoplasia
crown or root dilaceration
partial or complete arrest of root formation
odontome formation
