title: Management of the submerged deciduous tooth: 2. Treatment.
abstract: The previous article in this series dealt with the aetiology, diagnosis and potential consequences of submerging deciduous teeth. This paper will discuss the appropriate treatment options. The management is highly dependent on whether the permanent successor is present or absent. The degree of submergence and the age of the patient are also important factors for consideration.
