“…This novel technique is minimally invasive and preserves the developing tooth buds. [5] Thus, the treatment choice of fracture in pediatric mandible depends on age and stage of tooth development. For managing fractures, we have just two options either we will opt for an open reduction with internal fixation if it is an unfavorable fracture or a closed reduction with intermaxillary fixation if it is a favorable fracture.…”

Objectives: The intention of this study is to record the role of oral surgery in treating pediatric age group also to understand and emphasize the surgical protocol in pediatric patients. Material and Methods: In this retrospective study, data about the pediatric patients treated for maxillofacial fractures, cyst, and tumors were recorded since 2017 from the archive of Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Rajah Muthiah Dental College, and results were analyzed. Results: Since 2017, almost 220 cystic and fracture cases including pediatric and adult patients have been recorded of which 72 cases were odontogenic cysts and tumors and 148 were maxillofacial fractures. Among these, 17 cases were reported in patient <15 years that account for 7.72% of all cyst and fracture. Of these, nine cases were pediatric fractures and eight cases were pediatric cyst and tumors. Conclusion: The practice of pediatric dentistry demands a holistic approach toward oral health with thorough understanding of the anatomy, behavior, and growth potential of the child. Thus, the role of oral surgeons in providing care for such age group remains cardinal as they treat the pathology and maintain growth as well without any setback.

“…Dentoalveolar fractures are discontinuities in the tooth and alveolar structures that may occur separately or together, 14 characterized by displacement of the dentoalveolar segments, tooth mobility, occlusal disturbances, and hematomas to the adjacent oral mucosa. 5,15 A bone discontinuity and anterior dentoalveolar segmentation of the lower jaw area 32, 42 leads to dentoalveolar fracture. 5,16 However, in this case, the fracture was caused by accident, with injuries generally involving the maxillary anterior segment (4%-91%) followed by the anterior mandible.…”

“…Therefore, the reduction must be carried out quickly, and immobilization time should be shortened by about two weeks .3 The treatment choice in pediatric patients should be minimally invasive and result in restoration of the occlusion with minimal aesthetics and functional disturbances. 5 Treatment of dentoalveolar fractures is carried out by reducing or returning the fracture segments to their true position and fixation until the bone healing process occurs. 3 Patients with a mixed dentition period, fixation with arch bars is challenging to apply because of the resorption of primary tooth roots and incomplete formation of permanent tooth roots.…”

Introduction: Dentoalveolar fractures are often found in children due to physical trauma, falls, and motorized accidents. In pediatric patients, there are variations in age, jaw development, and dentition which are the primary considerations in choosing a dentoalveolar fracture treatment method. This case report aims to describe and discuss the emergency management of soft tissue injuries and mandibular dentoalveolar fractures with Risdon wiring in pediatric patients due to motorized accidents. Case report: A 9-year-old female patient complained of bleeding from the mouth due to a traffic accident. Clinical and radiographic examination showed dentoalveolar segment fractures in tooth region 32-42, stab wounds, and lacerations on the inferior lip, vestibule, and gingiva in tooth region 32-42. The patient underwent wound cleaning, wound suturing, and treatment of dentoalveolar fractures with fixation using Risdon wiring in the mandibular region 36-46. Conclusion: Conservative treatment of dentoalveolar fractures in pediatric patients with minimal intervention can give good results. Risdon wiring as a fixation method can be used in the emergency treatment of dentoalveolar fractures in pediatric patients with mixed dentition.

Tooth dislocation injury is a more common type of dental trauma, which is commonly caused by sports accidents, traffic accidents, falls, family accidents and increasingly common attacks. The purpose of treatment is to restore function by splinting in time. Splint will fix the injured tooth and the healthy teeth on both sides into a whole, so that the force is dispersed on a group of teeth, so that it forms a multi-rooted tooth. After dislocation injury, the displaced tooth must be restored to the normal position as soon as possible and fixed in time. Elastic and semi-elastic splints are mostly used in clinical fixation. The update and development of materials make the selection of fixation diversified. This paper will review the types and research progress of splint materials that meet the indications of tooth dislocation injury, in order to provide reference and guidance for clinical work.
