Abstract

The present paper describes the current treatment philosophy of dislocated or avulsed permanent teeth at our school. Splinting and medication (root canal treatment, systemic antibiotics, etc.) are targeted to minimize the initial inflammatory reaction and to reduce post-traumatic complications such as pulp necrosis and/ or external root resorption.
