An avulsion is defined as one of the most common dental injuries where the tooth is displaced completely from its socket, followed by trauma. The most important time in managing the avulsed tooth is the first few minutes and as children spend their most of waking time in school so the teacher is considering their immediate caregiver. Hence, this study was done to carry out the knowledge and attitude of school teachers regarding emergency management of avulsed permanent tooth in schools located in the southern region of Saudi Arabia.
The study was conducted at Najran School of Saudi Arabia. All teachers who are willing to participate in the study were involved. A questionnaire was made after reviewing several studies and was administered through emails to 318 teachers. The questionnaire consists of part I regarding demographic questions and part II information related to knowledge, action taken, education, and their way of managing the avulsed tooth at accident place. Statistics analysis was done using SPSS version 16.
Fifty percent of the participants know about the tooth avulsion. Fifty percent of the teachers who get information from the school health dental program get the tooth back to the dentist. There is a significant association found between the source of information and choice of treatment. Fifty-nine percent of the participants do not know about the management of tooth avulsion. And workshop plan then 89% was interested to attend the training.
The present study revealed that knowledge regarding the management of avulsed tooth is low among the school teachers. There is a strong need for a school health dental program for the management of avulsed teeth among the school teachers.

牙脱位被定义为最常见的牙外伤之一,即牙齿完全从牙槽窝中脱出,随后发生创伤。处理脱位牙最重要的时间是最初几分钟,由于儿童大部分醒着的时间都在学校,所以教师被视为他们的即时护理者。因此,本研究旨在了解沙特阿拉伯南部地区学校教师对脱位恒牙紧急处理的知识和态度。
本研究在沙特阿拉伯奈季兰学校进行。所有愿意参与研究的教师均被纳入。在查阅多项研究后编制了一份问卷,并通过电子邮件分发给318名教师。问卷包括第一部分关于人口统计学问题,以及第二部分与知识、采取的行动、教育以及他们在事故现场处理脱位牙的方式相关的信息。使用SPSS 16版进行统计分析。
50%的参与者了解牙脱位。从学校健康牙科项目获取信息的教师中,有50%会将牙齿送回给牙医。在信息来源和治疗选择之间发现有显著关联。59%的参与者不了解牙脱位的处理方法。对于工作坊计划,89%的人有兴趣参加培训。
本研究表明,学校教师中关于脱位牙处理的知识水平较低。迫切需要为学校教师开展一个关于脱位牙处理的学校健康牙科项目。
