  • Title: Protocol for treating the avulsed tooth.
    Author: Trope M.
    Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 1996 Mar; 24(3):43-9. PubMed ID: 9063193.
    Abstract:
    Avulsion of a tooth requires decisive action by the dental practitioner. Replantation of the tooth at the earliest possible time, along with the avoidance of further periodontal damage, is paramount to achieving a successful result. The accident site, time the tooth is out of the socket, storage media and endodontic protocol influence the prognosis. Appropriate endodontic management and tooth restoration will ensure long-term success.
