Dental luxation injuries occur when teeth are displaced from their normal position due to trauma. At London Dental Specialists, we understand the urgency and anxiety these situations create. Our treatment approach for luxated teeth varies based on severity—from stabilisation with splints to surgical repositioning or root canal therapy. Recovery typically takes 4-6 weeks, with supporting tissues healing gradually. Prompt action is crucial; if your tooth becomes dislodged, handle it carefully by the crown, keep it moist, and seek emergency dental care immediately. Our specialists provide comprehensive care throughout your recovery journey, ensuring the best possible outcome for your displaced teeth.
A dental luxation injury occurs when a tooth is displaced from its normal position in the socket due to trauma. At London Dental Specialists, we classify luxation injuries based on the direction and severity of displacement. These injuries can range from concussion (tooth is tender but not displaced) to more severe forms where the tooth is partially pushed out (extrusion), pushed into the socket (intrusion), or moved sideways (lateral luxation).
At London Dental Specialists, our treatment for dental luxation depends on the diagnosis and severity of the displacement. Treatment typically includes:
The healing time for tooth luxation varies depending on the severity of the injury. With proper treatment at London Dental Specialists, most supporting tissues around the tooth heal within six weeks if the nerve structure remains undamaged. The surrounding tissues that support your tooth typically experience swelling and inflammation that resolves within a few weeks. However, complete healing and monitoring may continue for several months to ensure no complications develop.
For intrusive luxation (where the tooth is pushed into the socket), our specialists at London Dental Specialists provide treatment based on the severity of intrusion:
If your tooth becomes dislodged, follow these immediate steps before reaching London Dental Specialists:
Yes, many luxated teeth can be saved with prompt and appropriate treatment. At London Dental Specialists, our success rates are highest when patients seek treatment within 30-60 minutes of the injury. The prognosis depends on several factors including the type of luxation, the stage of root development, and how quickly treatment is initiated. With proper emergency care and follow-up treatment, many luxated teeth can be preserved and remain functional for years.
The need for root canal treatment following a luxation injury depends on the severity of displacement and damage to the pulp (nerve tissue). At London Dental Specialists, we carefully assess each case individually. Generally, severely luxated teeth, especially in adult patients, often require root canal treatment as the blood supply to the pulp may be compromised. This procedure is typically initiated 2-3 weeks after the injury once the tooth has been stabilised.
The duration of splinting at London Dental Specialists depends on the type and severity of the luxation injury:
Our specialists will determine the appropriate splinting duration for your specific case and provide clear instructions for care during this period.
