Tooth avulsion, or the complete displacement of a tooth from its socket, is a serious dental injury that can lead to complications if not treated properly. The patient, a 13-year-old girl, had her two front teeth avulsed after a bicycle accident. Her teeth were replanted but later became mobile and were extracted. Dental implants were placed but required soft tissue grafting due to insufficient bone and tissue. Pink porcelain crowns were ultimately used to improve esthetics. Dental hygienists play an important role in educating patients on proper oral hygiene to promote the long-term success of replanted or implanted teeth.
This case report describes the replacement of congenitally missing bilateral maxillary lateral incisors and a right mandibular premolar with dental implants in a 22-year old female patient. The treatment involved first extracting retained primary canines and using orthodontics to gain space between teeth for implant placement. Implants were then surgically placed and allowed to heal, followed by the placement of abutments and final prosthesis. The treatment achieved excellent esthetic and functional results through an interdisciplinary approach between orthodontics, periodontics, and prosthodontics.
Multidisciplinary Approach in the Rehabilitation of Congenitally Maxillary C...Abu-Hussein Muhamad
Objective: This case report describes the multidisciplinary
approach to treat a congenitally missed maxillary canine, how to
improve patient’s smile using orthodontic fixed appliance, endosseous
dental implant, and porcelain veneer to achieve the treatment results of
function and esthetic.
Materials and procedures: Unilateral agenesis of the permanent
maxillary canines in healthy individuals is extremely rare. This
paper presents the case of a female patient diagnosed with congenital
unilateral agenesis of the permanent maxillary canines as well as
occlusal abnormalities in the form of left-side crossbite. To restore the
proper aesthetics and function, interdisciplinary therapeutic treatment
was implemented. In the case presented in this paper, the aim of
oral rehabilitation was to restore a functional balance by obtaining
proper skeletal relationships, creating optimal occlusal conditions and
obtaining arch continuity.
Conclusion: Interdisciplinary treatment combined of orthodontics,
implant surgery, and prosthodontics was useful to treat a nonsyndromic
oligodontia patient. Especially, with the new strategy, implantanchored
orthodontics, which can facilitate the treatmentand make it
more simply with greater predictability.

This case report describes the prosthodontic rehabilitation of a young patient with ectodermal dysplasia over several years using transitional removable dentures and later fixed implant-supported prostheses. Initially, the patient received interim removable partial dentures at age 14 after extraction of mobile deciduous teeth. At age 15, a conventional overdenture was fabricated. At age 18, a tooth- and bar-supported overdenture was made. Finally, at age 21 after osseointegrated implants were placed, a definitive fixed implant-supported prosthesis was fabricated. The patient was satisfied with the final prosthesis both aesthetically and functionally. Delaying fixed implant treatment until adulthood avoided potential growth-related complications.
This case report describes the immediate placement of a dental implant into a fresh extraction socket. A 53-year-old patient had a fractured maxillary lateral incisor extracted. The socket was prepared and a dental implant was immediately placed. Four months later, an impression was taken and a definitive crown placed. The patient exhibited no clinical or radiographic complications over two years of follow-up. Immediate implant placement and provisionalization preserved the hard and soft tissues and provided the patient with immediate aesthetics, function, and comfort.
This document describes a study on the socket shield technique for tooth replacement with dental implants. The socket shield technique involves retaining part of the facial root when extracting a tooth and immediately placing a dental implant. The study examined 15 patients treated with this technique between 2011-2018. Volumetric analysis using CT scans found that the socket shield technique helped maintain hard and soft tissue volumes compared to traditional immediate implant placement. The technique is described as an effective way to preserve alveolar bone and provide esthetic outcomes for dental implant treatment.

2) Orthodontic treatment using fixed appliances was used to correct crowding, spacing issues, and midline shift to create room for transplantation of the impacted teeth.
3) Autotransplantation of the impacted lateral incisor and canine was selected as the treatment approach and deemed to be a good alternative to prosthodontics given the patient's age.
Amato2019immediate loading of implant insertred throughMohamed Elsayed
This case series evaluated the survival rate and complications of immediately loading dental implants inserted through impacted teeth in the anterior maxilla or mandible. Seven patients received a total of 11 implants, which were immediately inserted using piezosurgery to drill through the impacted teeth. All implants integrated successfully without complications and were followed for 5-7 years. The results suggest this unconventional approach may be a viable option to avoid invasive procedures for removing impacted teeth. However, more studies are needed to validate this technique.
This document provides an overview of a case study on immediate dental implantation conducted by Prof. Pavel V. Kuts at the Dental Prosthetics Department of Bogomolets National Medical University in Kiev, Ukraine. The study involved 35 patients who underwent immediate implantation to replace extracted teeth. Bone substitutes were used to augment the alveolar ridge if needed. Temporary and permanent prosthetics were created. Indications for immediate implantation included dental trauma, chronic periodontitis, ineffective treatment of periodontitis, tooth dystopia requiring extraction, and deciduous teeth without permanent successors. The procedure aimed to minimize trauma and preserve bone during extraction and implantation.
Partial or complete edentulism has multiple implications in relation to function, esthetics and future rehabilitative treatment. This case report illustrates the management of a patient with extreme consequences of partial edentulism in the maxillary arch and total edentulism in the mandibular arch. The main clinical findings were unopposed remaining teeth, over eruption of the remaining teeth, loss of vertical dimension of occlusion, and significant disfigurement of the occlusal plane. Following the diagnostic procedure, a well-coordinated prosthodontic treatment involving liaison with other dental disciplines was indicated. The management involved an innovative combination of fixed and removable prostheses in conjunction with intentional root canal therapy of the remaining natural teeth. Series of provisional prostheses were applied to facilitate the transition to the final treatment.

The document discusses treatment options for untreatable traumatized anterior maxillary teeth in young patients to preserve the alveolar ridge for future dental implants. It notes that dental implants are contraindicated during childhood, requiring a 8-10 year waiting period for growth to cease. For future implants, it is essential to ensure continuous growth of the alveolar process in width and height from time of injury until skeletal maturity. Some treatment options discussed to achieve this include orthodontic extrusion of the root remnant with a temporary crown, autogenous tooth transplantation, and maintaining ankylosed teeth in place to prevent ridge resorption and space closure. The goal is to preserve the alveolar ridge until after skeletal maturity
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots that are surgically implanted into the jawbone. They allow dentures or bridges to be securely
attached without affecting adjacent teeth. Implants fuse with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration. Successful
implants require healthy gums and adequate bone support. Implant placement is a collaborative process between surgeons, dentists,
and technicians. It may involve bone grafting or sinus lifting depending on the anatomy of the site. After healing, an abutment and crown
are attached to restore chewing function and aesthetics. With proper maintenance, implants can last a lifetime.
This document discusses factors affecting the selection of patients for implant retained prostheses. It outlines that a thorough patient evaluation including medical history, dental evaluation through examination and imaging, and informed consent is required. The dental evaluation assesses bone quality and quantity, occlusion, and adjacent teeth. Indications for implants include missing teeth from congenital defects, trauma, or being edentulous. Contraindications include certain medical conditions, smoking, drugs/alcohol, or inadequate bone. Proper patient selection is key for implant success and satisfying treatment outcomes.
This document discusses factors to consider when selecting patients for implant retained prostheses. It outlines general patient factors like medical history and motivation that should be assessed. A thorough dental evaluation including extraoral and intraoral exams, various radiographs, and bone density assessment is important. Patients should provide informed consent and understand expectations, risks, and commitments. Clinical indications for implants include missing teeth due to congenital defects, trauma, or being edentulous. Contraindications include conditions that could compromise bone healing or the patient's ability to maintain implants. A multidisciplinary approach may be needed for complex cases.
One of the most frequent consequences of facial trauma is damage to the teeth and supporting structures. A thorough clinical examination, including radiographs, is necessary to identify any dental trauma when examining patients who have experienced facial trauma. This case report describes a 17-year-old male who had a tooth fragment embedded in his lower lip for a year following a bicycle accident. Radiographs revealed tooth fragments in the lip. Surgical removal of the fragments was performed and the fragments were reattached to the fractured maxillary incisors using bonding techniques. A review of similar prior cases in the literature found 9 other reports of tooth fragments embedded in lips following dental trauma.

Surgical removal of the fragments was performed and the fragments were reattached to the fractured maxillary incisors using bonding techniques. A review of similar prior cases in the literature found 9 other reports of tooth fragments embedded in lips following dental trauma.

The value of diversity in groups and society is continually.docxwrite5
Diversity in groups and organizations is often debated, as it can provide both benefits and challenges, especially in the workplace where diversity awareness has changed how companies operate. Having diversity of things like background, experience and thought can strengthen a group by bringing different perspectives and ideas, though managing diversity also has complications. Diverse work teams can foster innovation but may also face communication difficulties.
The prompt analyzes The Travels of Sir John Mandeville, a 14th century account of the author's purported journeys around the world. It examines how Mandeville conceptualized and structured his depiction of the world, how he connected different peoples and cultures, and what criteria he used to determine inclusion and exclusion in his narrative. The prompt also considers how Mandeville's work relates to and expands upon previous historical accounts, and how his portrayal of non-European cultures fits into discussions about the inherent Eurocentrism of Western thinking. Students are asked to analyze Mandeville's text as a piece of primary evidence that provides insight into late medieval European perspectives on self and other.

Two general technology trends in my workplace are that EHRs.docxwrite5
Two technology trends in the workplace are increasing use of complex electronic health records (EHRs) and patients using smartphone apps for healthcare. The author discusses their experience transitioning between two EHRs - AURA which was less sophisticated, and EPIC which is more complex but customizable and allows greater communication between providers. Another trend is greater integration of devices and artificial intelligence into EHRs for automated data entry. However, overreliance on technology could replace sound clinical judgment, so nurses must use technology as a tool rather than a replacement for care. Patients are also increasingly using the internet and health apps, so providers should guide patients to evaluate online information for accuracy.

on the web site from which the case study was obtained.Dental Trauma:A hygiene
student’s case studyBy Lauren Wilgenbusch, Minnesota State University, MankatoMay 7,
2013Tooth avulsion is among the most common and serious dental injuries. According to
the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, it is defined as “the complete
displacement of a tooth out of its socket.― It is responsible for up to 16% of all dental
injuries in the permanent dentition. Healing of an avulsed tooth often presents a challenge
and depends on the vitality of the cell layers along the root surface. Immediate replantation
at the accident site is the most critical determinant for the survival of avulsed teeth. Delay in
replantation will perpetually result in root resorption and loss of the tooth (Kenny,
2006).Complications after replantation of avulsed teeth are common and have conveyed
incidence rates ranging from 57% to 80% (Nesiama & Sinn, 2010). Complications may arise
during the next several years of regular dental exams, including ankylosis, excessive
mobility of the tooth, and resorption. Other complications that can emerge consist of
discoloration, infection in the pulp, and reinclusion of the tooth as a result of root
replacement resorption and ankylosis (Emerich & Wyszowski, 2010). Most replanted teeth
will be lost in five to seven years even if root canal therapy has been done after replantation
(Nesiama & Sinn, 2010).The patient, a 13-year-old female, was seen for emergency
treatment in July 2005. The child was catapulted over the handlebars of a bicycle, resulting
in the avulsion of the right and left permanent maxillary central incisors. The avulsed teeth
were left dry in the palm of her hand for 10 minutes until she reached the hospital where
the teeth were placed in milk. Other oral injuries included a laceration on the right side of
the philtrum, which was sutured. Examination of the avulsed teeth revealed that the crowns
were intact but the mesial incisal edges of both were fractured. Treatment options were
explained to the parents and replantation of the avulsed teeth was chosen. She was referred
to a local dentist to have the teeth replanted. The roots of the teeth were planed to remove
any debris and were then reinserted into the alveolar socket and secured with a splint for
six weeks. During the next year the patient had root canals done, followed by metal posts
and PFM crowns placed on the avulsed teeth.Due to the patient’s age at the time of
trauma, the crowns were replaced five years later with lava crowns, which are porcelain
crowns with a zirconia framework inside.One year after the crowns were replaced, the teeth
2. became mobile. The patient went in for an appointment and radiographs confirmed
external root resorption had occured around the reimplanted teeth (refer to figure 1).Figure
1The root resorption in this case was most likely due to PDL damage. Treatment options
were explained and the decision was made to extract the teeth and place dental implants.
She was referred to a Mankato, Minnesota oral surgeon for the implants.Implants in the
anterior region signify a particular challenge for oral surgeons. The ideal outcome is normal,
natural-looking teeth, but that is not always a possibility. Many considerations need to be
made in order for the implants to look as natural as possible, such as the need for bone and
tissue grafting (Block, 2001).When extracting a tooth with intentions of replacing it with an
implant, the decision needs to be made whether to do an immediate implant placement or
delayed placement. In this case, infection was not present, so implants were able to be
placed immediately.In the case of the patient, bone grafting was needed and was performed
at the same time as extraction and implant placement. Most anterior maxillary tooth sites
have insufficient bone and soft tissue, requiring both bone and soft tissue augmentation
(Block, 2001).The patient was healing well until a week after the surgery, when a suture
became unfastened, mobilizing the tissue and exposing the facial and mesial root surfaces of
number seven.The patient was then referred to a periodontist with optimistic expectations
of a successful tissue graft. She was seen for a consult and a treatment plan was developed.
The patient had a mucogingival defect at the facial and mesial surfaces of number seven;
each presented three millimeters of recession. The papillary tissue between numbers seven
and eight was absent, which presented a particular challenge for the periodontist since lost
papillary tissue previously could not be regenerated. The patient returned for surgery two
weeks later. Local anesthesia was used on the patient. A connective tissue bed was made on
the recipient site. To receive a decent color match, the donor tissue was taken from the
attached gingiva on the buccal side of teeth numbers two and three; the papilla was
included in the donor tissue. It was then transplanted onto the connective tissue bed and
sutured into position with the donor papilla replacing the missing papilla between teeth
numbers seven and eight. A periodontal dressing was placed over the donor site to aid in
healing and the patient was dismissed. The patient returned for a post-op appointment two
weeks after the procedure and a good response was shown with a wide band of keratinized
soft tissue support, partial facial root coverage, and regeneration of a mesial papilla.After
healing of the epithelial graft, the patient returned to her general dentist to have the
abutments and crowns placed. The healing abutments were removed, impressions were
taken and shades were matched and sent to the lab (refer to figure 2).Figure 2The patient
returned two weeks later for the crown fitting. The doctors were successful in regenerating
some of the tissue on tooth number seven but were not efficacious in restoring the tissue
apical to the implants. The crown placement resulted in lengthy-looking crowns, which did
not meet the patient’s esthetic demands, so different treatment options were considered
(refer to figure 3).Figure 3It was agreed to use pink porcelain crowns. The use of gingiva-
colored ceramics in addition with a fixed prosthesis has been recommended for treatment
of gingival recession (Capa, 2007). It can be challenging to achieve natural gingiva color so a
gingival shade guide was sent to the office and used to match the tissue. An intraoral
photograph was taken to assist the technician in providing the proper gingival
3. color.Radiographs were taken to confirm adequate crown placement and photographs were
taken of the final results (refer to figures 5 &6).Figure 5Figure 4ConclusionDental hygienists
play a key role in maintaining the replacement of avulsed teeth. They are faced with the
challenge of treating patients who have avulsed teeth and educating them with proper oral
hygiene instruction so they last for years to come, whether they are reimplanted or replaced
with dental implants. Patients that have successfully undergone dental implant surgery
should receive treatment modifications during dental care. All patients with dental implants
should be treated with plastic instruments in the affected area because stainless steel or
titanium instruments may scratch the surface of the implant promoting the growth of
plaque biofilm; the use of ultrasonic machines should also be avoided (Todescan, Lavigne &
Kelekis-Cholakis, 2012).Individual treatment modifications may also have to be considered
depending on the past periodontal health of the patient. Several studies have shown that
prior periodontal infections are a significant source of periodontal pathogens and may
proliferate to the dental implant. Other factors that put patients at greater risk include the
presence of diabetes mellitus, poor plaque control, and cigarette smokers. Patients with any
of these qualities should be closely monitored on a regular basis in hopes of extending the
life of their dental implants (Todescan et al, 2012).A thorough understanding of the clinical
signs on peri-implant diseases is critical to the prognosis of the implant. There are many
clinical examinations that can be used to discover the health status of a dental implant. This
includes a soft tissue assessment, plaque index, clinical probing depths, bleeding on
probing, suppuration, stability of soft tissue margins, mobility, and bone levels (Todescan et
al, 2012).The soft tissue assessment entails checking for clinical signs of gingival
inflammation, including edema, redness, and variations of delineation and uniformity. A
plaque index measuring system should also be utilized during the clinical examination.
Studies have shown that implants sprayed with titanium plasma that possess a rough
surface have higher plaque retention rates than smooth surface implants. On the other
hand, other studies have shown no correlation between the surface texture of an implant
and plaque retention. However, caution is advised when monitoring rough surfaced
implants because of the possibility of greater amounts of plaque accumulation (Todescan et
al, 2012).Probing is an essential and dependable diagnostic guideline in the longitudinal
monitoring of peri-implant tissues. A plastic probe should be utilized at recall appointments
to measure the midaspect of the mesiobuccal, buccal, distobuccal, mesiolingual, lingual, and
distolingual surfaces of the abutment. At the initial appointment after the placement of the
implant, baseline probing depths should be determined. Probing depths for traditionally
placed implants with supraosseous platforms generally range from two to four millimeters.
Intraosseous implants or implants placed at bone level may display slightly greater probing
depths. Increase in clinical probing depths along with bleeding upon probing and
suppuration are generally associated with loss of attachment and should be regarded as a
peri-implant disease. The clinical assessment should also include monitoring the soft tissue
margins in relation to the fixed dental implant. Apically migrating gingival tissue may
expose the implant surface to bacteria, increasing biofilm accumulation. Any recession
around the implant should be noted and monitored (Todescan et al, 2012).Mobility should
be routinely evaluated by means of manual examination or automated testing devices such
4. as the Periotestdental measuring instrument or the Ostell instrument. The cause of any
signs of mobility should always be determined if possible. Mobility may be due to failure of
the prosthetic or osseointegration. If the implant device moves as a whole unit, failure has
occurred and the device should be removed (Todescan et al, 2012).If clinical signs imply
peri-implantitis is present, radiographs should be taken to confirm the diagnosis. At each
recall appointment, an effort should be made to calibrate radiographic techniques so that
the relationship between bone and implant can be well defined. It is also important to
establish baseline bone levels after implant placement for comparison reasons (Todescan et
al, 2012).There are three diagnoses that can be made in regards to the health of dental
implants. Healthy is when no clinical signs of inflammation are present. Implant mucositis is
characterized as a localized inflammatory lesion within the soft tissue, and may be
recognized by redness and bleeding upon probing. Peri-implantitis is identified by a
localized inflammatory lesion which also includes attachment loss around an
osseointegrateddental implant. It is often correlated with increased probing depths,
suppuration, bleeding on probing, and loss of supporting bone (Todescan et al, 2012).Daily
plaque removal is the most critical factor in maintaining dental implants. Therefore, it is
imperative the patient have a thorough understanding of their responsibility in preserving
their implants along with proper at-home care techniques. An individualized oral hygiene
regimen should be provided for the patient according to the condition of the soft tissues and
extent of plaque accumulation and should be reviewed at every recall appointment. Home
care devices that have been shown to aid in the maintenance of dental implants include soft
toothbrushes, interdental brushes without metal wiring, end-tufted brushes, gauze, many
types of floss, stannous fluoride gel, and chlorhexidine rinse (Todescan et al, 2012).In
conclusion, traumatic dental injuries such as avulsion can be accompanied by many
complications and can also be time consuming and costly. In addition, they may affect many
aspects of life such as function, appearance, and self-esteem. But with new technology and
experts in their field, missing teeth and tissue can be esthetically replaced and maintained
and the patient’s quality of life and self-esteem can be returned.References1. Block, M.,
