Abstrakt: Avulsion of tooth is a grievous injury and ranges from .5-16 % of all injuries in permanent dentition and 7-21% in primary dentition, of which maxillary anterior are commonest. Most susceptible group is children between 7-14 years. Healing following avulsion and replantation is dependent on the extent of pulpal and periodontal ligament (PDL) tissue damage. Therefore, immediate replantation is the recommended treatment of choice for an avulsed permanent tooth. To achieve a more favorable prognosis following tooth replantation, minimal extra-oral dry storage for tooth & use of an appropriate interim transport medium is usually advocated. Replanted tooth should be monitored regularly and radiographically. To emphasize the various aspects of avulsion, research based information has been incorporated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
