Avulsion of a tooth caused by trauma, and its successful treatment is a challenging situation that a dentist encounters in clinical practice. There is a definitive treatment for the avulsed tooth, which depends on many factors. The immediate replacement and replantation of the avulsed tooth is necessary, but it cannot always be accomplished for a number of reasons. Thus, the tooth should be transported in a suitable medium to maintain the cell viability. The storage medium is one of the important factors that will help the dentist in rendering successful treatment for the avulsed tooth. There is a continuing search for an ideal storage medium. This review paper focuses on the various storage media, with special reference to coconut water.

Dental trauma very commonly comprises lesions that affect the teeth and their supporting structures. In pediatric ages, the main reasons for dental trauma are falls and accidents at school and while practicing recreative activities and sports. Fortunately, dental avulsions are not common; however, they are key factors in the loss of teeth if the issue is not adequately treated in a quick way, so is very important for parents, teachers, or any person that is present with a child during the accident to have knowledge about dental trauma, specifically regarding avulsed teeth, since the best treatment is reimplantation.

Aim: To describe radiographic features, clinical signs and symptoms, and chronological patterns of post-traumatic transient apical breakdown (TAB) in luxated permanent teeth.
Methodology: Records from 56 patients treated at the Dental Trauma Clinic of the School of Dentistry of the Federal University of Minas Gerais from 1993 to 2024 were accessed to collect demographic, clinical, and imaging features of 89 teeth that presented with radiographic signs of TAB after traumatic dental injury (TDI). Kaplan-Meier curves were built to illustrate the time elapsed between trauma until TAB onset and resolution for the whole sample and for each one of the TAB patterns.
