Abstract:Twenty-nine traumatically intruded permanent maxillary incisors from 20 patients were examined, treated and monitored for 2 years. There was a higher proportion of males than females. The teeth intruded furthest were more frequently extracted. Those which were surgically repositioned were more frequently retained and were associated with marginal bone loss significantly less frequently than those which were passively observed, while external root resorption occurred in similar proportions in both groups.

“…4 The Kaplan-Meier estimator shows the pulp survival for luxations as well as complicated and uncomplicated fractures in the permanent dentition 57.7 to 80 % for avulsions [19,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36]. The percentage of resorption in permanent dentition after severe luxation injuries, such as avulsions and intrusion, in this study is low (2/ 16; 12.5 %).…”
Adherence to the IADT guidelines for treatment of dental trauma may lead to more favourable outcomes when compared to cases treated without compliance to the guidelines.

“…The observation and surgical repositioning rates that they cite were from a controlled, prospective study. 1 This type of study reduces bias, which is a benefit in assessing the true effect of an intervention. However, the decreased bias associated with higher levels of evidence often results in a finding of less benefit from an intervention compared to studies that are of lower quality.…”
“…Conservative treatment is generally advocated for both primary and secondary incisor teeth, which usually erupt within one to six months of intrusion. 9 Definitive management of the intruded permanent incisor tooth is not universally agreed 10 but permanent incisor teeth with incomplete root formation often re-erupt spontaneously. 11 The opinion of an orthodontist may be appropriate at an early stage of management.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
