Abstract

The aim of this study is to assess what needs to be the priority in tooth avulsion: replantation asquickly as possible and deferred endodontic treatment, or replantation and elimination of every irritatingstimulus for the periodontal ligament. Twenty patients were selected and divided into 2 groups: in groupA attention was focused on the rapidity of replantation and postponed endodontic therapy, in group Bwe focused on the elimination of the necrotic pulp with extraoral endodontic therapy. Clinically, therewas no difference in stability, but there were 3 elements in infraocclusion in group A, and 4 in group B.Radiographically, a similar incidence of radicular resorption caould be observed in group B compared togroup A. In conclusion, as a result of dental avulsion, the speed of replanting always seems to be a priority.
