Case of avulsive tooth penetration into the soft tissues of the mouth

Abstract

Acute trauma to a tooth is one of the frequently encountered diseases in children. In children, injuries have peaks at 2.5-3 years and 8-12 years. This can be explained by the lack of protective and unstable neuromuscular reflexes, high mobility of children, with the beginning of active sports, lack of proper control over the behavior of children by adults. Avulsion (complete dislocation) of the tooth occurs in 0.5-5.95% of traumatic lesions in dental practice. In this case, the Central incisors are prone to injury more often than other groups of teeth: up to 38%. The article provides a clinical example of the introduction of avulsions tooth in the soft tissues of the oral cavity in a child of 4 years.
