The current report reviews a case of mixed dental trauma consequent to a fall by an older patient. The patient's teeth were forced out of alignment by the trauma and suffered pulpal necrosis. Treatment involved not only healing the acute injuries, but also attending to some subtle delayed problems that became apparent during treatment. Treatments involving endodontics, periodontics, orthodontics, and restorative dentistry were used to address all of the patient's concerns. This insured that the traumatic occlusion was corrected, appropriate esthetics was restored and normal speech and function was regained. All signs of trauma were recognized, every treatment step was documented, and appropriate follow-up was provided throughout the recovery period.
本报告回顾了一例老年患者跌倒导致的混合性牙外伤病例。外伤致使患者牙齿移位并发生牙髓坏死。治疗不仅包括治愈急性损伤,还需处理治疗过程中出现的一些细微的延迟性问题。牙髓病学、牙周病学、正畸学和修复牙科学等治疗手段被用于解决患者的所有问题。这确保了创伤性咬合得以纠正,恢复了适当的美观,并重获正常的言语和功能。所有创伤迹象均被识别,每个治疗步骤都有记录,并且在整个恢复期提供了适当的随访。
