25
Q

what are the three direct complications of trauma to primary teeth

A

discolouration
discolouration and infection
delayed exfoliation

26
Q

what is enamel hypomineralisation

A

qualitative defect of enamel - normal thickness but poorly mineralised

27
Q

what is enamel hypoplasia

A

quantitive defect of enamel - reduced thickness but normal mineralisation

28
Q

what is a dilacerated root

A

abrupt deviation of the long axis of the crown or root portion of the tooth

29
Q

what might cause delayed eruption of permanent teeth

A

premature loss of a primary tooth can result in delayed eruption of up to a year due to thickened mucosa

30
Q

what may a duller note on percussion of the tooth indicate

A

root fracture

31
Q

how long should sensibility tests be continued after injury

A

2 years

32
Q

what are the follow up times for an enamel fracture

A

6-8 weeks, 6 months and 1 year

33
Q

what are the follow up times for an enamel-dentine fracture

A

6-8 weeks, 6 months and 1 year

34
Q

what three things do you evaluate when dealing with an enamel-dentine-pulp fracture

A

size of pulp exposure
time since injury
associated PDL injuries

35
Q

when would you do a direct pulp cap

A

enamel-dentine- pulp fracture but tooth is non-TTP and positive sensibility tests

36
Q

when would you do a partial pulpotomy

A

larger exposure or been more than 24 hours since trauma

37
Q

how much of the pulp is removed in a partial pulpotomy

A

2mm

38
Q

how do you achieve haemostasis in partial pulpotomy

A

cotton wool soaked pellet in saline

39
Q

when would you do a full coronal pulpotomy

A

if hyperaemic or necrotic pulp

40
Q

why do we sometimes leave vital pulp tissue in the canal

A

to allow normal root growth (apexogenesis)

41
Q

what is the clinical findings for a concussion injury

A

pain on percussion

42
Q

what is the followup for concussion injury

A

4 weeks and 1 year

43
Q

what is the clinical findings for subluxation

A

increased mobility
TTP
bleeding from gingival crevice

44
Q

what are the follow up times for subluxation

A

2 weeks - splint removal
12 weeks
6 months
1 year

45
Q

what are clinical findings of an extrusion injury

A

2 weeks - splint removal
4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks
6 months and 1 year

47
Q

what are the clinical findings of a lateral luxation injury

A

tooth appears displaced

48
Q

what occurs in a lateral luxation injury in a tooth with incomplete root formation

A

49
Q

what occurs in a lateral luxation injury in a tooth with complete root formation

A
