[Emergency signs in oro-facial traumatology in children and adolescents].
Based on an analysis of the literature concerning the children and adolescents with dental trauma to primary and permanent teeth, the treatment is multidisciplinary, requiring surgical, orthodontic, operative and prosthetic compliance. Periodic check-up is essential. These guidelines are intended as an aid to the dentist in the management and treatment of traumatized teeth and should be revised as soon as more evidence about the effect of treatment delay becomes available.
