ABSTRACT

Traumatic dental injuries can cause serious aesthetic, functional, and psychological consequences. Time is one of the most critical factors determining clinical outcome; all dental injuries should be considered as true emergencies. Luxated and avulsed teeth should be considered for immediate action in order to maximize the chance for long-term retention. Other injuries can be complicated if not treated shortly after the traumatic event. It is the responsibility of the emergency physician to direct patients to appropriate dental consultants in a timely fashion. Although dental interventions will usually follow management of life- threatening injuries, dental consultation in this situation should be sought as soon as possible especially in younger patients. This review will emphasize the emergency management of luxation dental trauma and its endodontic consideration for permanent dentition
