Modern treatment of avulsed teeth by emergency physicians.
New research has shown that the incidence of success of replanted avulsed teeth can be greatly increased by differentially diagnosing and treating them according to the length of extraoral time and the physiological width of the apical foramen. A specific treatment regimen has been presented that will give the physician the information necessary to maximize the success of replanted avulsed teeth that may be seen.
