Root resorption (RR) is a common complication of traumatic dental injuries (TDIs), which could result in tooth loss and affect life in severe cases. The management of a traumatized tooth with RR remains a challenge for clinicians. In our presented cases, the impacted teeth had a history of trauma and underwent thorough non-surgical endodontic treatment; however, RR still occurred months later and could be observed through a periapical radiograph. Therefore, root canal therapy was performed under a dental microscope with a quick-setting calcium silicate cement to repair the RR site. After a long follow-up, the affected teeth showed almost complete healing of the periradicular tissues without sign of RR. This report demonstrates that external root absorption is typically a consequence of traumatized teeth. However, to date, there is still no effective method for its treatment. Here, we successfully applied microscopical surgery to the traumatized teeth experiencing root absorption and provided them with a new healing opportunity.

Background. Avulsion is among the most severe types of dental trauma, which often occurs at young ages and can compromise the long-term prognosis of the traumatized tooth. Case Report. Herein, we report replantation of two avulsed teeth. Our patient was an 11-year-old boy with two avulsed maxillary central incisors due to a bicycle fall 2 months earlier. The patient was referred to us after rigid splinting of his teeth by a surgeon. Long-term calcium hydroxide (CH) therapy was performed for the patient, and after healing of periodontal ligament (PDL), apexification was performed for both teeth followed by root canal therapy. During the 2-year follow-up, both teeth were functional and had no radiographic or clinical evidence of resorption or ankylosis. Conclusion. The reported case highlights the favorably high tissue healing potential following severe dental trauma, given that appropriate treatment is performed. Correct endodontic management can guarantee the long-term prognosis of teeth following severe dental trauma.

Objective. The aim of this work was to study the incidence of complications of dental traumatisms and look for associations between factors related to trauma and the occurrence of complications. Materials and Methods. It is a longitudinal retrospective study on a sample of 125 traumatized teeth. The sample is taken from patients consulting the dentistry service at the hospital Sahloul Sousse between 2014 and 2017. Criteria for including a patient were presence of a permanent incisor affected by a subluxation, intrusion, lateral luxation, extrusion, or avulsion injuries associated or not with concomitant dentoalveolar injuries. Data were collected using a questionnaire. The information about etiology of trauma, delay of consultation, orientation of the patient, kind of injury, and emergency treatment and complications were obtained from the patients’ records. Results. The incidence of complications was 8%: external root resorption was present in 70% of cases, surface resorption was observed in 10% of cases, and replacement resorption in 10%, ankylosis in 10%. About pulpal complications, pulp necrosis was found after 4 weeks of follow-up, as well as the internal root resorption after one year. The most common cause of the trauma was the fall (40%). The majority of patients came for emergency consultation within “1 to 3 days,” and the coronary fracture without pulp exposure was the first diagnosis (20.60%). Statistical analysis showed no significant relationship between the cause of the trauma and the complication (P=0.577) and between the delay of consultation and complication (P=0.143). However, an association between consultation time and patient orientation was found (P=0.009). Conclusion. Treatment of dental injuries is usually delayed and not given as much attention as general medical treatment that can explain the occurrence of pulpal and periodontal complications. Immediate consultation and treatment could improve long-term prognosis of the injured tooth.

Dental trauma is very common, especially in children and adolescents. Tooth avulsion (exarticulation), which is a result of complete rupture of periodontal ligaments is one of the most severe dental injuries. The treatment of choice in avulsion of permanent teeth is reimplantation. Survival of reimplanted teeth depends greatly on the time and conditions in which teeth were stored outside the oral cavity. This report presents a case of 18-year old male with avulsion of central maxillary incisors. The teeth were reimplanted 14 hours after injury. During 8-year follow up no major complications occurred and the teeth still maintain their function, although signs of mild replacement resorption are visible on the follow-up radiographs.

(1) Background: To assess orthodontic forced eruption (OFE) as a pre-restorative procedure for non-restorable permanent teeth with subgingival dental hard tissue defects after dental trauma. (2) Methods: A systematic electronic search of three databases, namely, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE, revealed a total of 2757 eligible publications. Randomized controlled clinical trials (RCT), retro- and prospective clinical studies, or case series (with a minimum of three patients) were reviewed. (3) Results: Thirteen full-text papers were included: one RCT, one prospective clinical trial, two retrospective cohort studies, and nine case series. Within case series, statistical significance between age and cause of fracture (p < 0.03) was determined. The mean extrusion rate of OFE was 1.5 mm a week within a four to six weeks treatment period followed by retention. Three OFE protocols for maxillary single teeth are available: 1. OFE without migration of gingiva and alveolar bone, 2. OFE with gingival migration and slight alveolar bone migration, and 3. OFE with migration of both gingiva and alveolar bone. (4) Conclusions: The current state of the evidence suggests that OFE is a feasible pre-treatment option for non-restorable permanent teeth. OFE can promote the migration of tooth surrounding hard and soft tissues in the esthetic zone. Root resorption does not seem to be a relevant side effect of OFE.

Aims and Objectives: To determine the prevalence and etiology of fractured anterior teeth due to trauma among 8–14 years old school going children of Hyderabad city. Materials and method: A cross-sectional study was carried out in 8-14 year old children studying in various schools of Hyderabad for the assessment of traumatic injuries of anterior teeth. Clinical examination was carried out and type of teeth affected, type of fracture, overjet and lip competence were noted. A closed end questionnaire was given to children with questions regarding etiology of trauma, place of injury, symptoms or outcomes after the injury, whether a dentist was consulted, type of treatment done by dentist and time elapsed between trauma and treatment. All the results were analyzed using “statistical package for social sciences” (SPSS) 20.0 software. Results: The prevalence of dental trauma was found to be 7.84%. 11-14year old children showed higher prevalence. Males were more affected than females. Maxillary central incisors were most affected. Fracture involving enamel and dentin were recorded the highest. Children having overjet of >3mm and incompetent lips were at a higher risk of dental trauma (p value = 0.001). The most common cause of injury was sports and home was the most common place of occurrence of injury. Most of the traumatic dental injuries (TDI) did not undergo any treatment. Conclusion: Increasing the awareness of the parents and teachers about the prevention of TDI and the importance of consulting the dentist after trauma should be instituted.

AbsractA more conservative approach to the treatment of traumatic dental injuries has been made possible by knowledge concerning the pathogensis of external root resorption, increased knowledge about wound healing processes in the pulp and periodintium, as well as by advances in restorative dentistry (reattachment of crown fragments with a dentin bonding system, the use of adhesive bridges, and advances in autotransplantation and implantation). However, a rethinking by the public, clinicians, and third-party payers is necessary for these procedures to gain wider acceptance. The present article describes the state of the art of treating dental trauma in the hope that these advances cam become an accepted part of the dental trauma armamentarium and not merely scientific curiosities.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE Middle meningeal artery (MMA) pseudoaneurysms and middle meningeal arteriovenous fistulas (MMAVFs) are rarely reported after head injury. We report an unusual case of delayed MMA pseudoaneurysm formation after spontaneous thrombosis of an MMAVF, and review existing literature on MMAVF treatment and results. CLINICAL PRESENTATION A 59-yr-old male presented with a 5-d history of worsening left-sided headaches, followed by nausea, lethargy, and difficulty with speech. Non-contrast computed tomography demonstrated a left temporal intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH) and an acute left-sided subdural hematoma (SDH). Cerebral angiography found abnormal shunting between the right MMA and the right sphenoparietal sinus, consistent with an MMAVF. During the course of admission, the patient's neurological condition deteriorated requiring craniotomy for evacuation of SDH and IPH. Given the presumed incidental nature of the contralateral MMAVF, conservative management was recommended. Follow-up imaging 2 mo after surgery revealed spontaneous thrombosis of the right MMAV. Repeat imaging 5 mo later revealed an MMA pseudoaneurysm at the prior fistulous site, which was subsequently embolized with Onyx, occluding the pseudoaneurysm and the MMA both proximal and distal to the pseudoaneurysm. CONCLUSION Spontaneous thrombosis of an MMAVF is rare and only seen in 13.1% of cases. However, subsequent delayed formation of an MMA pseudoaneurysm has not been described. Our case therefore demonstrates that MMAVF thrombosis may not indicate complete healing of the underlying injury to the MMA, and suggests the need for continued follow-up of such lesions despite initial apparent resolution.

External resorption is sequelae of necrotic periodontal membrane over a large area of root following an injury to the tooth. This usually occurs after severe dental injuries such as intrusion, severe luxations or exarticulation injuries complicated by a prolonged extra oral period. This case report presents a clinical and radiographic follow up (13 months) of treatment of inflammatory external root resorption on maxillary central incisor using Vitapex®. Gradual healing of resorption was observed radiographically with no tenderness or pathological mobility.

Objective: This study evaluated the prevalence, clinical management and sequelae in deciduous teeth involved and permanent successors in 150 children (256 deciduous teeth. Of these, 63.3% were male, 24-35 months of age at the time of the trauma (37.9%) and the falls (78.1%) represented the major etiological factor. In relation to the type of injury, 24.6% was enamel fracture; 62.5% showed support tissue injury (lateral luxation, 22.3%). In the first and second assessments (T1 and T2), the average follow-up time was 14.5 and 26 months (256 and 131 teeth).We diagnosed clinical and radiographic sequels including discoloration of the crown (T1-15.6; T2-13.7%), inflammatory root resorption (T1-7.0; T2-8.4%); and in permanent successors, enamel hypoplasia (T1-1.2; T2-2.3%), eruption disturbances (T1-2.0; T2-1.5%).The chi-square test evidenced association, in T1, between injuries to the supporting tissues and clinical (p = 0.003) and radiographic (p = 0.004) sequelae in permanent successors; and between clinical sequelae and age at the time of trauma (p = 0.005). In T2, radiological sequelae in deciduous teeth with injuries to the tooth and supporting tissue (p = 0.035); as well as clinical sequelae with elapsed time of trauma in permanent teeth (p = 0.005). It is concluded that the follow-up of traumatized deciduous teeth is essential to prevent sequelae.

In dentistry,root resorption is the breakdown or destruction and subsequent loss of the root structure of a tooth caused by living body cells attacking part of the tooth. When the damage extends to the whole tooth is called tooth resorption. Severe root resorption is very difficult to treat and often requires the extraction of teeth. Root canal therapy has been shown to be a verysuccessful means of treating inflammatory resorption. It has been recommended to include a calcium hydroxide paste in the root canal therapy to enhance the success of the treatment out come. Calcitonin has also been suggested as an interim root canal medicament to assist in the inhibition of osteoclastic bone and dentin resorption. Calcitonin penetrates the dentinal tubules in the out word direction, thus exerting a direct effect DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cdcj.v10i1.13833 City Dent. Coll.
