Injuries to teeth can be very distressing for patients. Prompt treatment is essential. Injuries of the tooth bearing portion of the mandible are common and can even result after a relatively low impact trauma. The alveolus (tooth bearing portion of bone) and/or the tooth may be damaged. Segmental fractures involve multiple teeth and the supporting alveolar bone.
牙齿损伤对患者来说可能非常痛苦。及时治疗至关重要。下颌骨牙齿承载部分的损伤很常见,甚至在相对较小的撞击创伤后也可能发生。牙槽骨(骨骼的牙齿承载部分)和/或牙齿可能会受损。节段性骨折涉及多颗牙齿和支持性牙槽骨。
