Presentation
Consequently the aim of the present study was to measure the total time of treatment of uncomplicated and complicated traumas to primary and permanent teeth. [diva-portal.org]
However, this can be one of the clinical presentation of an alveolar fracture. Gingivae bleeding especially around the margins may suggest injury to the periodontal ligament of the tooth. [en.wikipedia.org]

Proper management of dental trauma is most often a team effort, with general dentists, pediatric dentists, periodontists or oral surgeons on the front line of the emergency service, and endodontic specialists joining the effort to preserve the tooth with [decisionsindentistry.com]
The area should be cleaned gently and the child brought to see a dentist. Adult front teeth (which usually erupt at around 6 years of age) can be replaced immediately if clean. See below and the Dental Trauma Guide website for more details. [en.wikipedia.org]
- Swelling
Clinicians are advised to look for at least one other sign of pulpal necrosis, such as vestibule swelling, periapical lesions and/or dramatic color change of the crown. [decisionsindentistry.com]
Signs of pulpal necrosis include [36] Persistent grey colour to tooth that does not fade Radiographic signs of periapical inflammation Clinical signs of infection: tenderness, sinus, suppuration, swelling Treatment options will be extraction for the primary [en.wikipedia.org]
- Asymptomatic
No treatment is needed if it is asymptomatic. Treatment options will be extraction for symptomatic primary tooth. [en.wikipedia.org]
- Falling
It is important to remember that dental injuries do not always fall into one group or category, but often a combination of categories, and that injuries involving multiple categories will impact the outcome. [decisionsindentistry.com]
Gastrointestinal
- Nausea
Nausea/vomiting, fluids from the ear/nose, situational confusion, blurred vision or uneven pupils, and difficulty of speech and/or slurred speech may also indicate serious injury. 5 Once the patient has been cleared of any CNS issues, the dental trauma [decisionsindentistry.com]
Skin
- Eruptions
The permanent dentition can suffer from tooth malformation, impacted teeth and eruption disturbances due to trauma to primary teeth. [en.wikipedia.org]
Musculoskeletal
- Fracture
CLINICAL EXAMPLES Dental trauma can be roughly divided into two groups: fractures and luxation injuries. Fractures are further divided by type: crown, crown-root and root fractures. [decisionsindentistry.com]
This injury involves the alveolar bone and may extend beyond the alveolus. [5] [6] There are 5 different types of alveolar fractures: Communicated fracture of the socket wall Fracture of the socket wall Dentoalveolar fracture (segmental) Fracture of the [en.wikipedia.org]

The most common traumas were luxations of primary teeth and fractures of permanent teeth. The most frequent treatments dealt with were uncomplicated crown fractures and luxations followed by other different diagnoses of complicated traumas. [diva-portal.org]
Treatment
Besides treatment time, efforts from the family are substantial in time and costs. [diva-portal.org]

Prognosis
The patient and parents/guardians should be advised the long-term prognosis of an intruded tooth is unpredictable, as it is likely to eventually be lost due to ankylosis. 19–21 FIGURE 5. [decisionsindentistry.com]
Dental trauma often lead to the main complication such as pulpal necrosis, and it's nearly impossible to predict the long-term prognosis of the injured tooth and often results in long term restorative problems. [45] [46] [47] See also [ edit ] Dental [en.wikipedia.org]
