    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_subluxation

    It is most commonly seen in school children. Dental subluxation is one of the most common traumatic injuries in primary dentition. Maxillary central incisors are the most commonly affected teeth. [10] [11] Some studies have proposed that the resilience nature of periodontium favours dislocation than fracture of the tooth itself. [12]

  3. Joint dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_dislocation

    Each joint in the body can be dislocated, however, there are common sites where most dislocations occur. The most common dislocated parts of the body are discussed as follows: Dislocated shoulder. Anterior shoulder dislocation is the most common type of shoulder dislocation, accounting for at least 90% of shoulder dislocations.

  4. Tooth eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_eruption

    Non-eruption of non-ankylosed teeth occurs due to an eruption mechanism that has failed leading to a posterior unilateral/bilateral open bite. [28] Infra occlusion is the primary hallmark of PFE. Primary teeth are most commonly affected and normally all teeth distal to the most mesially affected tooth will show characteristics of this disease.

  5. Dental trauma - Wikipedia

    The management depends on the type of injury involved and whether it is a baby or an adult tooth. If teeth are completely knocked out baby front teeth should not be replaced. The area should be cleaned gently and the child brought to see a dentist. Adult front teeth (which usually erupt at around six years of age) can be replaced immediately if ...

    Single-surface in posterior primary teeth (baby back teeth) for first 2 years High (survival percentage = 94.3% [± 1.5]) [10] Multiple-surface in posterior primary teeth for first 2 years Medium to low (survival percentage = 65.4% [± 3.9]) [10] Single-surface in posterior permanent teeth (back adult teeth) for first 3 years

  8. Bone healing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_healing

    Bone healing, or fracture healing, is a proliferative physiological process in which the body facilitates the repair of a bone fracture. Generally, bone fracture treatment consists of a doctor reducing (pushing) displaced bones back into place via relocation with or without anaesthetic, stabilizing their position to aid union, and then waiting ...

  9. Elbow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elbow

    Elbow dislocations constitute 10% to 25% of all injuries to the elbow. The elbow is one of the most commonly dislocated joints in the body, with an average annual incidence of acute dislocation of 6 per 100,000 persons. [30] Among injuries to the upper extremity, dislocation of the elbow is second only to a dislocated shoulder. A full ...
