Dental Trauma AndResearch Articles

Dental trauma refers to trauma (injury) to the teeth and/or periodontium (gums, periodontal ligament, alveolar bone), and nearby soft tissues like the lips, tongue, etc. The study of dental trauma is named dental traumatology. Soft tissues injuries are presented commonly in association with dental trauma. Areas normally affected are lips, buccal mucosa, gingivae, frenum and tongue. the foremost common injuries are lips and gingivae. For lips, important to rule out presence of foreign objects in wounds and lacerations through careful examination. A radiograph  are often taken to spot any potential foreign objects. Gingivae lacerations that are small normally heals spontaneously and don't require any intervention. However, this will be one among the clinical presentation of an alveolar fracture. Gingivae bleeding especially round the margins may suggest injury to the periodontal ligament of the tooth. The facial and parotid duct should be examined for any potential damage when the buccal mucosa is involved. Deep tissue wounds should be repaired in layers with sutures that are resorbable. Trauma to primary teeth occurs most ordinarily at the age of two to three years, during the event of motor coordination. When primary teeth are injured, the resulting treatment prioritises the security of the permanent tooth ,and should avoid any risk of damaging the permanent successors. this is often because the basis apex of an injured deciduous tooth lies near the tooth germ of the permanent tooth
