Clinical conduct of the dentist toward the dental avulsion: Literature review

The dental avulsion is characterized for the dislocation of the toothfrom its socket. The knowledge about the clinical conduct after trauma is not unanimous. The present study has compiled several works about dental avulsion, having as objective to consider the moreadequate clinical conduct, analyzing the procedures suggested by theseveral authors. Hesitation still exists in the conduct to be followedby the dentist in the presence of the related situation, but there is a consensus of the best storage media when the tooth is not reimplanted at the moment of the avulsion and the type of splint.The intra-canal (root canal space) medication to be used after traumais still controversial as well the medication used around the rootbefore the reimplantation.
