Dental Trauma, an interdisciplinary approach.
When confronted with dental trauma, agenesis of teeth or tooth impaction in patients with developing bone structures, replacement of teeth presents challenges. Providing options for the patients having an optimal functional and aesthetically pleasing replacement which adapts in time to the development of the patient, are limited. The choice for tooth autotransplantation is part of an interdisciplinary treatment planning. It is mandatory for an optimal treatment planning, to select the appropriate patient and the donor tooth, as well as to monitor successful healing and to establish normal occlusion after transplantation. Different specialists are involved in the team including an orthodontist, an endodontist, a periodontist or an oral surgeon and a restorative dentist or pedodontist. Based on well documented cases over the last 20 years the different choices to replace teeth after dental trauma will be presented.
