VICTORINO, Fausto Rodrigo et al. Tooth replantation for the treatment of Dental avulsion: case report. Rev. Assoc. Paul. Cir. Dent. []. 2013, 67, 4, pp. 278-281. ISSN 0004-5276.

The tooth avulsion is the most serious injuries among the mouth in a facial trauma. The management of teeth and soft tissues involved during and after reimplantation is essential to a favorable prognosis. The aim of this paper was to present a case study of dentoalveolar trauma with avulsion of the four upper teeth. Female patient, 11 years old, attended the service in Surgery and Maxillo-Facial, Hospital Santa Rita City Maringá-PR, showing fracture of the superior buccal bony plate and avulsion of teeth 12, 11, 21 and 22, due to cycling accident. Under general anesthesia, suturing was performed soft tissue, reducing alveolar bone fractured, splinting and replantation of teeth. After surgery, the patient was referred for endodontic treatment of teeth replanted. Was used intracanal medication with calcium hydroxide, for three months. To radiographic control after two years, there was no signs of root resorption and replacement by the periapical regions of teeth were normal. The care of avulsed teeth before and after the replantation, endodontic treatment and systemic medication immediately, with exchanges of calcium hydroxide as intracanal medication, were fundamental to the clinical and radiographic success of two years in control.
