Guidelines have been developed for management of numerous medical and dental conditions. If carefully developed and based on best available evidence, they serve a very useful purpose in giving information in dealing with health problems to health care providers as well as patients. The history of trauma guidelines is quite limited, but the American Association of Endodontists has been involved since the 1980s. In recent years, the International Association of Dental Traumatology has developed guidelines for management of traumatic dental injuries, with input from specialists in all relevant disciplines of dentistry. These guidelines, first developed and published in 2001 and updated twice since then, have been accepted as reliable recommendations for the urgent care of traumatic dental injuries; the most recent trauma guidelines were completed by the International Association of Dental Traumatology and published in 2012. The application of these guidelines is to provide both patients and practitioners with the best available information about management of such injuries. As with most guidelines, there are limitations that are primarily related to the level of evidence available, which is low. However, they are useful and, when followed, can lead to better outcomes than when no guidelines are used.
针对众多医学和牙科病症，已经制定了相关指南。如果精心制定并基于现有最佳证据，这些指南在向医疗保健提供者以及患者提供处理健康问题的信息方面具有非常有用的作用。创伤指南的历史相当有限，但自20世纪80年代以来，美国牙髓病学家协会就一直参与其中。近年来，国际牙外伤协会在牙科所有相关学科专家的参与下，制定了牙外伤管理指南。这些指南于2001年首次制定并发布，此后更新了两次，已被公认为牙外伤紧急护理的可靠建议；最新的创伤指南由国际牙外伤协会完成并于2012年发布。这些指南的应用旨在为患者和从业者提供有关此类损伤管理的最佳可用信息。与大多数指南一样，存在一些局限性，主要与现有证据水平较低有关。然而，它们是有用的，遵循这些指南比不使用任何指南能带来更好的结果。
