The prognosis depends highly on the attitude adopted (notably by parents and teachers) at the time of the accident. Immediate reimplantation being the best treatment. The aim of this survey was to assess the knowledge of parents and primary school teachers regarding the management of permanent incisor avulsion, in the Wilaya of Grand Casablanca. Materials and Methods: 80 public and private schools were randomly selected among of the 8 delegations of Grand Casablanca, then, a self-administered questionnaire of 10 items was submitted to both teachers and parents. The collected data was analyzed using Epi info 6.0 software. Results: Among 640 teachers and 640 parents who took part in the survey, most were females (87.8% of teachers and 75% of parents). 8.3% of parents and 8.1% of teachers have reported having a previous experience with dental avulsion. 9.7% of parents and 3.9% of teachers will immediately replant the avulsed tooth, 68.8% of teachers and 48% of parents will see a dentist carrying the avulsed tooth. 11.7% of the parents and 19% of the teachers chose milk as a storage medium, the other part opted for a dry storage. There was a significant link between the parents’ education level and the attitude adopted to manage permanent incisor avulsion (p<0.05). As to teachers, years of teaching did not influence decision making. Conclusion: The state of knowledge of participant in this survey presents numerous shortcomings that must be corrected in order to improve the prognosis of permanent incisor avulsion among children in our country.","PeriodicalId":16711,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatric Dentistry","volume":"506 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77066552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The operating field was isolated with a rubber dam to ensure moisture control and an endodontic treatment was performed. In the second visit, the root canal filling material was partially removed while maintaining 5 mm in the apical third. A dual resin was injected into the canal from the apical to the coronal third. The fiber post was placed into the root. Then, the fractured fragment was placed on the root with the fiber post passing through the access cavity into the crown. In the third visit (one month later), a 3mm-deep preparation was performed in the buccal surface using a round diamond bur. Following color matching, a fluid composite was applied on the buccal preparation and it was light-cured. This was followed by finishing and polishing.","PeriodicalId":16711,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatric Dentistry","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77891943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: The toothbrushes were divided into two groups: Group I (n=45) stored inside the bathroom and Group II (n=45) stored outside the bathroom. Group I and Group II was further sub divided into three groups and then subjected to different sanitization methods: Ultraviolet light sanitizer, domestic microwave oven, and 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate. Results: Contamination is found to be less in the brushes kept outside the bathroom as compared to brushes kept inside the bathroom and Most effective method for sanitization of toothbrushes is microwave irradiation followed by UV rays and then chlorhexidine gluconate solution. Conclusion: Toothbrushes should always be stored outside the bathroom so that they are out of the aerosol range and proper storage & disinfection of the toothbrush is as important as brushing your teeth for a healthy and germ-free life.","PeriodicalId":16711,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatric Dentistry","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86675097","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among children and adolescents, aged between 6 months and 15 years, who consulted the Casablanca dental emergency department between January and April 2019. The data obtained from questionnaires by a calibrated interviewer were collected and analyzed by using SPSS IBM. Results: The results showed a prevalence of 18.1% of TDI with a sex ratio of 2.5 in favor of boys, a mean age of the participants was 10.1±2.9 years. The 9to 12-year-old group was the most affected (41.2%). The street was the main place where the trauma occurred (47.3%). Meanwhile, accidental falls were the predominant reported etiology (59.5%). The percentage of patients who consulted on the day of the trauma was 36.6%, and 40.4% of children consulted the dental emergency service as a second line. The prevalence of permanent teeth affected was 75.9%. In the primary dentition, the most frequent type of trauma was avulsion, while in permanent dentition, uncomplicated crown fractures were predominant. Concerning the management of trauma, 6 out of 11 avulsed teeth were re-implanted, and only 9 out of 77 coronal fragments were picked up at the site of the trauma. Conclusion: Considering the prevalence of 18.1% of TDI in children and the high percentage of falls and traffic accidents as common causes, the level of social awareness and knowledge of the importance of emergency intervention immediately following dental trauma should be increased.","PeriodicalId":16711,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatric Dentistry","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84361393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
