Avulsion of permanent teeth Lars Andersson*1, Jens O. Abstract – Avulsion of permanent teeth is one of the most serious dental Andreasen*2, Peter Day*3, Geoffrey injuries, and a prompt and correct emergency management is very important Heithersay*4, Martin Trope*5, for the prognosis. The International Association of Dental Traumatology Anthony J. DiAngelis6, David J. (IADT) has developed a consensus statement after a review of the dental Kenny7, Asgeir Sigurdsson8, literature and group discussions. Experienced researchers and clinicians from Cecilia Bourguignon9, Marie various specialties were included in the task group. The guidelines represent the Therese Flores10, Morris Lamar current best evidence and practice based on literature research and professionals’ Hicks11, Antonio R. Lenzi12, Barbro opinion. In cases where the data did not appear conclusive, recommendations Malmgren13, Alex J. Moule14, were based on the consensus opinion or majority decision of the task group.

M. Ethunandan,1 D. Shanahan2 and M. Patel3 VERIFIABLE CPD PAPER Immediate and late mandibular fractures are a rare complication of third molar removal. We analysed 130 cases of mandibular fractures following removal of impacted third molars reported in the literature, including four managed in the maxillofacial unit and identified potential risk factors. Its occurrence is likely to be multi-factorial, with age, gender, angulation, laterality, extent and degree of impaction and associated pathologies contributing to the risk of fracture. Postoperative fractures were more common than intra-operative fractures (2.7:1) and occurred most frequently in the second and third weeks (57%). A ‘cracking’ noise was the most frequent presentation (77%). Intra-operative fractures were more frequent among females (M:F – 1:1.3), and differed from postoperative fractures (M:F – 3.9:1).

  • Eruption of Teeth Assistant Professor Aseel Haidar
    Lec. 3 Eruption of teeth Assistant Professor Aseel Haidar Lec.3 Pedodontics Forth stage Assistant Professor Aseel Haidar Early Eruption (NATAL AND NEONATAL TEETH) Natal teeth are (teeth present at birth) and neonatal teeth (teeth that erupt during the first 30 days) prevalence is low. About 85% of natal or neonatal teeth are mandibular primary incisors, and only small percentages are supernumerary teeth. It is common for natal and neonatal teeth to occur in pairs. Natal and neonatal molars are rare. Most studies suggest that the etiology for the premature eruption or the appearance of natal and neonatal teeth is multifactorial. A possible factor involving the early eruption of primary teeth seems to be familial, due to inheritance as an autosomal-dominant trait. A radiograph should be made to determine the amount of root development and the relationship of a prematurely erupted tooth to its adjacent teeth. One of the parents can hold the x-ray film in the infant’s mouth during the exposure. Most prematurely erupted teeth (immature type) are hypermobile because of limited root development. 1. If the tooth is extremely mobile to the extent that there is danger of displacement of the tooth and possible aspiration, so the treatment indicated in such a case is the removal of the tooth. 2. If the tooth has sharp incisal edge that may cause laceration of the lingual surface of the tongue, so treatment is the removal of the tooth. The preferable approach, however, is to leave the tooth in place and to explain to the parents the desirability of maintaining this tooth in the mouth because of its importance in the growth and uncomplicated eruption of the adjacent teeth.

Odontostomat., 11(3):319-325, 2017. ABSTRACT: Ankylosis is an anomaly of tooth eruption characterized by the fusion of cementum and alveolar bone, and may affect from small regions to the entire root surface. Clinical assessment combined with imaging exams can aid diagnosis. Radiographic testing enables assessing only proximal regions of possibly affected roots. Whereas cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) allows a three-dimensional assessment of axial, coronal, and sagittal planes of all dental extension, eliminating thus overlapping images and helping to confirm the correct diagnosis. The present study contains a case report of a male patient with ankylosis in tooth 16 diagnosed by CBCT, aiming at providing information for dentists about this anomaly, its characteristics and situations in which CBCT should be indicated.
