Direct bonded prosthesis using avulsed tooth: A novel technique for esthetic rehabilitation in growing children
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
Avulsion and luxation account for up to 16% of all traumatic injuries in the permanent dentition and 7.2% of injuries in the primary dentition. A range of treatment options exist to bridge the space created, depending on the condition of the surrounding dentition and the character of the patient. They include both removable and fixed appliances. Following the traumatic loss of an anterior tooth it is important that an immediate replacement is provided in order to avoid esthetic, masticatory and phonetic difficulties and to maintain the edentulous space to avoid arch length discrepancy. The loss of an anterior tooth in a child or young adolescent may present a difficult prosthetic problem. This problem can be managed in several ways.This article reports utilization of the avulsed tooth as part of a direct bonded transitional prosthesis in a growing child. Keywords:Avulsion, trauma, injuries, anterior tooth, esthetic, direct bonded prosthesis, growing child.
