  • Title: Endodontic management of trauma to permanent teeth.
    Author: Biggs JT, Sabala CL.
    Journal: Compendium; 1990 Sep; 11(9):538, 540-4. PubMed ID: 1982929.
    Abstract:
    Oral trauma is a common event. It has been estimated that up to 20% of the United States population has sustained injuries to the teeth. In a perspective study, Andreasen reported that one of every two Danish children had sustained an oral injury by age 14. This article will discuss the different types of injuries that can happen to permanent teeth, endodontic management of these injuries, and possible complications. Exarticulations (totally avulsed teeth) will not be thoroughly discussed.
