“…69.41% of the participants declared that they could not replant a displaced tooth. Similarly, 90.7% of participants reported that they could not reimplant an avulsed tooth back in its place in another study carried out in Turkey (21). Similarly, our study results reveal that the majority of the participants are incompetent in this regard.…”

“…The most preferred option is to store the avulsed tooth within a dry medium, ie a napkin. Similarly, 45% of the participants in the study carried out by Swiatkowska et al in Poland (17) and 21.8% of the participants in the study of Ozer et al in Turkey considered dry napkins as the optimal transport medium (21). Displacement of a tooth due to trauma is considered an emergency situation by Turkish family members.…”

Direct or indirect traumas occurring within the oral cavity due to factors such as falling, collisions with someone or an object, traffic accidents or sports activities are called traumatic dental injuries (TDI). Nowadays, the increase in the prevalence of TDI, the undeniable duration and cost of treatment procedures have to lead the experts to classify these injuries as a serious threat to public health (1,2). In their study, Andersson et al. emphasized that TDI makes up as much as 17% of all traumatic injuries (3). In another study, it was reported that TDI accounts for 40% of all dental surgeries being performed for the first time (4). On the other hand, Glendor et al. pointed out that TDI occurs among nearly one-quarter of school-age children (5). Similarly, Rajab et al. stated that TDI accounts for 25.6% of the patients who have been examined in the Pediatrics Department of Jordan University (6). Considering the results of the reports from many countries, it is presented in the literature that TDI occurs among one-third of preschool children, one quarter of school-age children and one-fifth of adolescent children (7). It is essential that emergency TDI management is performed as promptly and properly as possible (8). Dental traumatic injuries may result in major functional and aesthetic deformities in children if not managed and treated immediately (9). 16% of TDIs causes tooth loss and this may cause changes in the facial development of children along with triggering other complications such as psychosocial distress (10). In this case, the success of initial management depends on the level of knowledge of individuals at the scene of the incident. Previous studies have shown that most TDIs in primary and permanent dentition occur at home, 40% of which are under parental observation (7,11). Therefore, it can be agreed that family members are assigned great responsibility in the matter of TDI management. Although the reports published on this issue show differences among countries, they all conclude that parents and family members have limited knowledge about initial TDI management (12-15). Therefore, the researchers agree that the posttraumatic prognosis depends on the success of the TDI management performed by family members (5,14,16).

“…Our patient and his parents were unaware that teeth can be replanted back to their place until dentist suggested such an intervention. Other studies conducted on this topic have also shown that parents' knowledge of tooth injuries and possible treatment is inadequate [22,23]. Everyone involved in childcare should be properly educated in prevention and treatment of all kinds of dental trauma.…”

Summary Introduction Tooth and other oral tissue damage can occur at any time of life. Traumatic extraction is a complex traumatic injury characterized by complete dislodgement of the tooth from its alveolus. The diagnosis of traumatically injured teeth includes X-rays and a detailed clinical examination. Case report A twelve-year-old boy reported at the dental clinic of the Faculty of Medicine due to the injury in the anterior maxillary region. It was a sport injury. The time elapsed since the accident was 2 hours and 20 minutes. According to the clinical examination and X-rays the diagnosis was: The teeth 11 and 21 – Complete traumatic dental avulsion and fracture; 22-Hypodontia and chin contusion and laceration. The teeth were brought in physiological solution. After applying local anesthetic, soft tissue was cleaned, the teeth positioned back in their alveoli and an immobilizing splint of fiberglass fibers placed. The patient was administered antibiotics and recommended tetanus prophylaxis. Seven days after the injury, teeth were treated endodontically. After one month, the immobilizing splint was removed. The tooth 21 was definitely obturated and composite buildups were done on both teeth. Calcium hydroxide dressing was left in the canal of the tooth 11. One month and 3 weeks after the injury, a fistula appeared above the tooth 11, and the treatment was finally completed after seven months. Conclusion Traumatic tooth injuries, of any kind, require urgent treatment as time loss usually reduces chances for successful treatment. One year after the injury, the patient had no symptoms and the result was functional and aesthetically acceptable.

Latar Belakang: Trauma dental yang terjadi di sekolah sering kali tidak ditangani dengan baik.Menurut data 97,55% kejadian tidak dirawat dan akhirnya menyebabkan kecacatan. Dokter kecilsebagai kader kesehatan sekolah diharapkan dapat melakukan prosedur penanganan kegawatdaruratantrauma dental sebelum dirujuk ke tenaga medis profesional, sehingga diperlukan pelatihankegawatdaruratan bagi mereka. Tujuan: Untuk mengetahui pengaruh pelatihan dokter kecil dalampenanganan kedaruratan trauma dental dengan metode simulasi. Metode: Jenis penelitian ini adalahquasi experiment. Penelitian ini adalah eksperimetal semu dengan rancangan pre-test and post-testgroup. Subjek penelitian adalah 60 dokter kecil yang dibagi menjadi 2 kelompok; 30 dokter kecilkelompok metode simulasi, dan 30 dokter kecil kelompok metode demonstrasi. Analisis datamenggunakan uji T berpasangan. Hasil: Metode simulasi meningkatkan rata-rata pengetahuan dokterkecil sebesar 55,6%, sedangkan kelompok metode demonstrasi sebesar 44,6%. Hasil uji Tberpasangan pada perbandingan metode simulasi dan demonstrasi didapatkan nilai p=0,03 (pvalue<0,05).
