Course Description:
Management of traumatic dental injuries (TDI) often poses a clinical challenge that affects dentist, patients, and their families. Treatment of TDI sequalae can be complex, time consuming, expensive, and often requires multidisciplinary collaboration. Through a series of clinical case presentations, this session will show the role of the endodontist in the diagnosis and management of complications of TDI through incorporation of the dental trauma guidelines, contemporary literature, and clinical experience.
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Articulate how to utilize the dental trauma guidelines and how to make modifications on a case-by-case basis
- Outline endodontic complications following dental trauma and their management
- Review the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in the treatment of complications following TDI
