A Comprehensive Treatment For Different Types Of Dental Trauma
Dental trauma refers to acute injuries of varying degrees to the hard tissues of the tooth, the pulp, or the periodontal tissues caused by sudden mechanical impact. This paper reports a case of different types of dental trauma, including tooth concussion, crown fracture, root fracture, lateral dislocation, and tooth tearing injury, which were treated comprehensively to restore the physiological function and aesthetics. After a 3-year follow-up, the teeth is functioning well. The clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques of dental trauma are closely related to multiple disciplines in stomatology, encompassing multidisciplinary treatment concepts and methods such as dental preservation and restoration, pulp injury treatment, pediatric dentistry, periodontology, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and aesthetic dentistry.Dental trauma is a disease with complex clinical types, involving multiple tissues and diverse treatment options. Research has found that replantation surgery can achieve ideal periodontal ligament healing when the external exposure time of dislocated teeth is less than 5 minutes. After more than 1 hour, almost all periodontal ligament tissue has died. The patient had a strong desire to preserve their teeth, so they underwent tooth replantation surgery. Through systematic treatment, the teeth function well. To improve the effect of periodontal healing after tooth replantation, research has shown that local application of PRF derived from autologous blood can promote periodontal healing and reduce the occurrence of various pathological absorptions in teeth with longer dislocation time Strong feasibility and significant effect.
