Abordagem multidisciplinar no tratamento de traumatismo dentoalveolar tardio em dente permanente: relato de caso clínico

Abstract

Dentoalveolar traumas represent one of the primary concerns in oral health, alongside dental caries and oral cancer, posing a significant challenge to global public health. These traumas are particularly revalent among children and adolescents, resulting not only in irreparable tooth loss but also profound aesthetic, functional, and psychological impacts. This study describes a case of late dentoalveolar trauma in a 25-year-old female patient, following facial injury from an accident involving a domestic animal. Initial examination revealed inflammation, suppuration, and tooth mobility in the right lateral incisor, later confirmed by radiographic examination showing considerable alveolar bone loss. Multidisciplinary treatment involved periodontal specialists, restorative dentistry, and endodontics, including procedures such as scaling and root planing, endodontic treatment, splinting, and incisal edge restoration to restore tooth aesthetics and function. After six months of follow-up, the patient demonstrated periodontal health recovery and stabilization of bone loss, indicating therapeutic success in both clinical and radiographic assessments. Therefore, a multidisciplinary approach plays a crucial role in managing dental traumas, ensuring effective treatment and improving patient prognosis and well-being.
