Alveolar Bone Fracture: Pathognomonic Sign for Clinical Diagnosis

Abstract: Aim:Dental injuries, especially luxation and avulsion, are common. Dental trauma can cause alveolar bone fracture that can lead to tooth loss and malocclusion. Single tooth alveolar bone fractures are difficult to identify unless it protrudes through the overlying mucosa and can be visualized. Pain, malocclusion, and tooth mobility provide signs of suspected alveolar bone fractures. Integrity of the proximate alveolar bone should be examined for fractures where avulsion, luxation, or other tooth trauma is dete… Show more

“…Tissue damage to the oral cavity can include tooth tissue damage, periodontal tissue damage and alveolar bone damage. Alveolar bone damage can be caused by trauma, tumors, congenital abnormalities, infection and bone retraction [1]. In addition, bone damage can also be found in several diseases, like rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and osteolysis [2].…”

“…6 Alveolar bone fractures involve approximately 5.5% of dental injuries, 7 and they can cause complications in patients who suffer dental trauma. 5 The treatment for alveolar bone fractures recommended by the International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) involves repositioning the fragment and splinting for 4 weeks. To treat lateral luxation, the recommendation has been to use a flexible splint for 4 weeks.…”

“…Pulp necrosis may occur around the root region. 6 In 2003 until 2005 at the dentoalveolar trauma center of Pontifical Catholic University, Parana, Brazil, the dentoalveolar trauma case became one of the most serious problems in dentistry with an incidence prevalence of 647 patients. Results of Indonesia Basic Health Research show that the prevalence of trauma in 2004 (56.818 cases) and increased in 2005 (72.281 cases).…”
