Dental Trauma Management

Broken Teeth After Falls

More than frequently, children especially the young toddlers, come across fall or trauma affecting their upper front teeth. When any traumatic emergency is seen in relation to primary teeth, treatment or no treatment approach is decided based on extent and severity of trauma and also on the age of the child at the time of trauma.

When the same scenario occurs with permanent teeth, advanced cosmetic restorations are advised to create the tooth structure in closest resemblance to the lost enamel and dentine layers. Based on the clinical and radio-graphic status, further treatment needs can be discussed, explained and  agreed. Though cosmetic restorations are quite a close replica of natural tooth, strength wise, they fall short of enamel which is the hardest substance in the body. Post operative instructions are hence given to be more careful while eating or biting on hard food stuff.
