  • Title: Replantation of an avulsed tooth with an extended extra oral period.
    Author: Kubasad G, Ghivari S, Garg K.
    Journal: Indian J Dent Res; 2012; 23(6):822-5. PubMed ID: 23649072.
    Abstract:
    In this study, we have reported a case of the replantation of a maxillary incisor with an extended extraoral period following a traumatic avulsion. After storage in normal saline, the root surface of the avulsed tooth was conditioned with citric acid and treated with a triple antibiotic solution. The tooth socket was filled with Emdogain before replantation. A 12 month, 18 month and a 5 year follow-up clinical examination revealed the patient to be asymptomatic, and the tooth was functional. The recall radiograph showed no evidence of renewed periradicular breakdown and apical root resorption.
