Ten-year follow-up after immediate management of multiple sports‐related dental injuries: a case report

Abstract

This case report aims to describe a long-term follow-up after the immediate treatment of multiple dental injuries. A 15-year-old female patient was admitted to a private clinic 30 minutes after an accident at school. After clinical and radiographic examinations, tooth 21 was diagnosed with enamel fracture and horizontal root fracture, tooth 22 was diagnosed with lateral luxation, and teeth 12, 11, and 23 were diagnosed with subluxation. Teeth 21 and 22 presented pulp necrosis resulting in root canal treatment. Moreover, tooth 21 was filled with a paste composed of calcium hydroxide, 2% chlorhexidine gel, and zinc oxide, and tooth 22 was filled conventionally. After a 10-year follow-up, her teeth 21 and 22 showed no root resorption or periapical lesion, while her teeth 12, 11, and 23 still presented pulpal vitality.
