This case report presents the treatment of a 12-year-old boy who suffered serious dental trauma, accompanied with buccal alveolar socket wall fractures, during orthodontic treatment. The maxillary right lateral incisor and canine were severely extruded and laterally luxated to the palatal side, resulting in an anterior crossbite and creating an incisal interference that prevented the jaws from closing in normal occlusion. During emergency treatment, the dentist attempted manual repositioning, but both severely extruded teeth were found to be immobile. One day after trauma, orthodontic repositioning was started using full fixed appliances with light 0.012″ nickel-titanium round wires, and this occlusal interference was corrected within 3 weeks. In the various internationally recognized treatment guidelines, the options for orthodontic repositioning for dental luxation trauma are only marginally described. Internationally accepted dental treatment guidelines may include immediate orthodontic repositioning after trauma as a treatment option in the management of dental extrusive and lateral luxation trauma.

The Aim: The of study was to assess the prevalence and features of acute dental trauma in children living in educational institutions.
Materials And Methods: 131 medical records of children from orphanages who suffered dental injuries in the period from 2017 to 2021 were studied. The analysis of the relationship of the type of acute dental injury (ADI) with the gender, age of patients, history, and the timing of medical care access was carried out.

A one-year-old female Eastern black-and-white Colobus () was evaluated after tangling its right forelimb in exhibit netting. Radiographs of the right forelimb revealed craniolateral luxation of the radial head and a complete transverse fracture of the proximal ulna, otherwise known as a type III Monteggia fracture. Open reduction was performed and a locking cuttable bone plate was placed to address the ulnar fracture.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the complication rates and long-term outcomes, as well as to refine case selection criteria for cats undergoing trochlear ridge augmentation (TRA) using an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene implant (UHMWPEI) for the treatment of patellar luxation (PL).
Methods: The clinical records from two referral veterinary hospitals were searched for cases that fitted defined inclusion criteria. A short-term assessment was based on examination and radiography at 8 weeks postoperatively.

Background: This study aimed to analyse the relationships between injury variables, treatment variables and the status of the periodontium or pulp of luxated teeth.
Materials And Methods: The electronic medical records and imaging data of patients who underwent treatment for luxation injuries of permanent teeth in the paediatric dentistry and dental emergency departments of the Stomatology Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine between 1 January 2012 and 1 January 2022 were retrospectively analysed. First, the patients' records were reviewed to collect background and follow-up imaging data; then, all early clinical variables were reviewed and used to construct models to predict the periodontal and pulp status of the luxated teeth.

Purpose: Orotracheal intubation is one of the most frequently used techniques in emergency procedures and especially in anesthesia and resuscitation. Teeth may be "victims" of the orotracheal intubation. Several factors may predispose to these accidents.
