Trauma to front teeth in kids.

 During childhood tooth and mouth injuries are very common. Nearly 50 percent of children have tooth injuries in childhood. In most cases, the injuries are not life-threatening but sometimes they can cause serious and long-lasting effects on a child’s appearance and self-confidence.

 

Causes:

·         Fight with other kids

·         Falls

·         Child trips down with an object in the mouth

·         Clashes with household furniture

 

Evaluation:

 Many parents wonder when to give attention to kids about normal tooth or mouth injuries,

·         If there is a broken, missing, or loose tooth after an injury.

·         If there is bleeding that doesn’t stop after 10-15 min.

·         If there is pain and sensitivity in the tooth.

·         Difficulty in mouth opening.

·         If the vision and speech are affected.

 

Treatment:

Dental injuries — the treatment for dental injuries depends upon the child's age, the type of injury, and whether the injured tooth is primary or permanent.

 

Long-term follow-up after injury — Injuries to the teeth, especially those involving permanent teeth, will require long-term follow-up and care. Even if the injured tooth appears healthy, it is still important for the parents to have their children evaluated by a dentist who is experienced in dental injuries.

 

Dislocated or loose primary tooth — The most common injury to the primary teeth is dislocation of the front teeth. The management of these injuries focuses on preventing future damage to the permanent teeth.

 

Broken primary tooth — Children with broken teeth should see a dentist promptly. Treatment may include smoothing the rough edges of the tooth, repairing it with a tooth-colored resin material, pulpectomy procedure, leaving the tooth in place, or removing it.

 

Dislocated permanent tooth — A permanent tooth that is knocked out is a dental emergency that requires prompt treatment. The tooth should be placed back into the tooth socket as soon as possible, ideally within 15 minutes and up to one hour or longer if stored in cold milk.

Because of the importance of replacing the tooth quickly, the following steps are recommended:

● Handle the tooth carefully by the top.

● Remove any debris by gently rinsing the tooth with saline or milk; the tooth should not be scrubbed or sterilized.

● Place the tooth by hand, back into the socket if possible. If not possible, then place it in a physiologic storage medium (Hank’s solution, Saliva, or saline).

● Keep the tooth in place by having the child bite on a clean towel or handkerchief.

·         See the dentist as soon as possible.
