How to save a knocked-out tooth
Jaskaran Singh
Dasmesh Institute of Research and Dental Sciences, India
A
vulsion is a complete and total displacement of the tooth from its sockets, representing 0.5 to 3 % in permanent dentition
(mostly affecting children between 7 and 9) and 7 to 13 % in primary dentition. An adequate management within the first
half hour is most important for the prognosis of the tooth. The ideal situation is to replant an exarticulated tooth immediately
after avulsion because the extraoral time is a determinant factor for treatment success and for a good prognosis. However, it
is not always possible. The success of replantation depends on a number of factors among which, the type and characteristics
of the medium used for temporary storage during the time elapsed between avulsion and replantation plays an essential role.
Recent research has led to the development of storage media that produce conditions that closely resemble the original socket
environment with adequate osmolality, pH., nutritional metabolites and glucose and thus create the best possible conditions
for storage. Thus, this presentation is an attempt to understand the same.
