  • Title: Replantation of avulsed teeth: considerations and complications.
    Author: Ogunyinka A.
    Journal: Afr J Med Med Sci; 1998; 27(1-2):129-31. PubMed ID: 10456145.
    Abstract:
    Avulsion of teeth is a traumatic dental injury which can be managed by replantation. Important considerations for successful replantations are highlighted. Several sequelae to replantation are discussed in relation to the clinical features observed in a patient seen 6 years after replantation of two avulsed upper incisors. Many of these complications might have been avoided if the patient had returned to the clinic for root canal therapy shortly after the teeth was replanted.
