    DESCRIPCIÓN SISTEMÁTICA DE LAS CAUSAS ASOCIADAS A LESIONES TRAUMÁTICAS DENTARIAS EN MENORES DE 6 AÑOS
    (Universidad de Valparaíso, 2016) Calderón López, Pamela Eliana; Flores, Marie Therese
    Introducción: La prevalencia del trauma dentoalveolar en pre-escolares varía entre 11-30%. Las principales causas son caídas y golpes directos en la región oral, que ocurren mayormente en el hogar. Desde 1989 se utiliza una historia clínica para el registro de lesiones traumáticas dentarias en niños que acuden al Servicio de Traumatología Dental Infantil UV. Sin embargo, no se ha establecido una descripción sistemática de cómo ocurren dichas lesiones. Objetivos: Realizar una descripción sistemática de las causas de las lesiones traumáticas dentarias en niños de 0-5 años. Materiales y métodos: Se estudiaron 739 causas de lesiones extraídas de historias clínicas. Se realizó una categorización del lugar y del “cómo ocurrió” en base a la Clasificación Internacional de Lesiones por Causa Externa (CILCE) en causas: Primaria: actividad; Secundaria: objeto generador y directo; y Terciaria: mecanismo de acción generador y directo. Resultados: En la categorización CILCE, la causa primaria ocurrió en el 55,9% en la vivienda (jugando 43,8%; actividad diaria 26,3%) y 18,1% en el jardín infantil. Los elementos de una construcción (piso, paredes, escaleras) correspondieron al 15,7% de los objetos generadores, mientras que en un 52,9% fueron los objetos directos del trauma. El mecanismo de acción generador fue en un 20,4% un tropezón y en un 19% la pérdida de equilibrio. El mecanismo de acción directo fue en un 42,2% las caídas en el mismo nivel. Conclusiones: El documento obtenido de la categorización CILCE, constituye un punto de partida para identificar factores o elementos que pueden constatar falta de supervisión de padres o cuidadores.

    International Association of Dental Traumatology guidelines for the management of traumatic dental injuries: 1. Fractures and luxations
    (Wiley, 2020) Flores, Marie Therese
    Traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) of permanent teeth occur frequently in children and young adults. Crown fractures and luxations of these teeth are the most commonly occurring of all dental injuries. Proper diagnosis, treatment planning, and follow up are important for achieving a favorable outcome. Guidelines should assist dentists and patients in decision making and in providing the best care possible, both effectively and efficiently. The International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) has developed these Guidelines as a consensus statement after a comprehensive review of the dental literature and working group discussions. Experienced researchers and clinicians from various specialties and the general dentistry community were included in the working group. In cases where the published data did not appear conclusive, recommendations were based on the consensus opinions of the working group. They were then reviewed and approved by the members of the IADT Board of Directors. These Guidelines represent the best current evidence based on literature search and expert opinion. The primary goal of these Guidelines is to delineate an approach for the immediate or urgent care of TDIs. In this first article, the IADT Guidelines cover the management of fractures and luxations of permanent teeth. The IADT does not, and cannot, guarantee favorable outcomes from adherence to the Guidelines. However, the IADT believes that their application can maximize the probability of favorable outcomes.

    International Association of Dental Traumatology guidelines for the management of traumatic dental injuries: 2. Avulsion of permanent teeth
    (Wiley, 2020) Flores, Marie Therese
    Avulsion of permanent teeth is one of the most serious dental injuries. Prompt and correct emergency management is essential for attaining the best outcome after this injury. The International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) has developed these Guidelines as a consensus statement after a comprehensive review of the dental literature and working group discussions. It represents the current best evidence and practice based on that literature search and expert opinions. Experienced researchers and clinicians from various specialties and the general dentistry community were included in the working group. In cases where the published data did not appear conclusive, recommendations were based on consensus opinions or majority decisions of the working group. They were then reviewed and approved by the members of the IADT Board of Directors. The purpose of these Guidelines is to provide clinicians with the most widely accepted and scientifically plausible approaches for the immediate or urgent care of avulsed permanent teeth. The IADT does not, and cannot, guarantee favorable outcomes from adherence to the Guidelines. However, the IADT believes that their application can maximize the probability of favorable outcomes.

    International Association of Dental Traumatology guidelines for the management of traumatic dental injuries: 3. Injuries in the primary dentition
    (Wiley, 2020) Flores, Marie Therese
    Traumatic injuries to the primary dentition present special problems that often require far different management when compared to that used for the permanent dentition. The International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) has developed these Guidelines as a consensus statement after a comprehensive review of the dental literature and working group discussions. Experienced researchers and clinicians from various specialties and the general dentistry community were included in the working group. In cases where the published data did not appear conclusive, recommendations were based on the consensus opinions or majority decisions of the working group. They were then reviewed and approved by the members of the IADT Board of Directors. The primary goal of these Guidelines is to provide clinicians with an approach for the immediate or urgent care of primary teeth injuries based on the best evidence provided by the literature and expert opinions. The IADT cannot, and does not, guarantee favorable outcomes from strict adherence to the Guidelines; however, the IADT believes their application can maximize the probability of favorable outcomes.
