“…In case of luxation injuries, the outcome depends more on the duration of the splinting than on the type of splinting [21]. For example, in a study conducted in animal models, replanted teeth splinted for 30 days developed a higher incidence of replacement resorption than teeth splinted for only one week [22]. …”

Aim:Dental injuries, especially luxation and avulsion, are common. Dental trauma can cause alveolar bone fracture that can lead to tooth loss and malocclusion. Single tooth alveolar bone fractures are difficult to identify unless it protrudes through the overlying mucosa and can be visualized. Pain, malocclusion, and tooth mobility provide signs of suspected alveolar bone fractures. Integrity of the proximate alveolar bone should be examined for fractures where avulsion, luxation, or other tooth trauma is detected. Any suggestion of alveolar fractures should be further investigated with an appropriate radiograph.Summary:This case report shows a pathognomonic sign that detects and diagnosis single tooth alveolar bone fractures, i.e., a localized hematoma crossing the attached gingiva from the free gingival margin to the vestibular mucosa. This should serve as a warning for localized alveolar bone fracture.A visualized hematoma and gentle, careful palpation may help detect covered fractures when the overlying mucosa is not perforated.

“…Other types of dental injuries include injuries to supporting structures such as soft tissues, alveolar bone, and periodontal ligaments. Moreover, serious injuries such as temporomandibular joint (TMJ) injuries, jaw fractures, and craniofacial injuries also occur because of major sports-related accidents and can crucially impact the quality of life of an athlete (7).…”

Sports-related dental trauma pertains to injuries occurring during sports or physical activities that affect the teeth, mouth, or surrounding oral structures. This prevalent type of sports injury can impact athletes of all ages across various sports and recreational pursuits. Crucially, preventive measures, including the use of protective gear like mouthguards and helmets, play a vital role in minimizing the risk of dental injuries during sports. Guidelines from authoritative bodies, such as the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry's Policy on Prevention of Sports-Related Orofacial Injuries, underscore the significance of protective gear in reducing these injuries. This review critically evaluates the effectiveness of current protective gear, encompassing mouthguards, helmets, and facial shields, while also addressing challenges like user compliance and comfort issues. By conducting a thorough analysis, the aim is not only to contribute to the academic discourse on sports dentistry but also to offer practical insights and recommendations for enhancing protective measures. Emphasizing a comprehensive approach involving technological advancements, educational initiatives, and strict adherence to safety protocols, the integration of protective gear emerges as a pivotal element in safeguarding the oral health and overall well-being of athletes engaged in diverse sporting disciplines.
