Girl's knocked-out tooth saved after quick-thinking parents rush to clinic

A seven-year-old girl has had her tooth saved after a cycling accident left it completely knocked out. Doctors at Primorsky Regional Dental Clinic in Vladivostok performed an emergency replantation procedure to restore the tooth. The quick actions of her parents helped ensure the treatment’s success. The girl fell from her bicycle, resulting in a full tooth avulsion. Her parents located the lost tooth and rushed her to the clinic within half an hour of the incident. Upon arrival, she was immediately admitted to the pediatric department.

The medical team included an oral surgeon, a pediatric dentist, and an orthodontist, supported by nurses. They first treated the wound before carrying out endodontic therapy. The tooth was then carefully repositioned and stabilised to secure it in place.

The replantation procedure successfully restored the girl’s tooth. Her rapid arrival at the clinic and the coordinated work of the medical team made the treatment possible. The clinic confirmed the tooth is now stable and healing as expected.
