Abstract

Dental emergencies in trauma patients present unique challenges that require a multidisciplinary approach for optimal management. This review article explores the importance of collaboration between dental professionals, radiologists, and respiratory therapists in providing comprehensive care for trauma patients experiencing dental emergencies. The integration of radiology imaging techniques, such as CT scans and panoramic X-rays, plays a crucial role in accurately diagnosing dental trauma and guiding treatment decisions. Furthermore, the involvement of respiratory therapists is essential in ensuring airway patency and respiratory stability during dental procedures in trauma patients. This article discusses the various dental emergencies commonly seen in trauma patients, including avulsed teeth, fractured jaws, and soft tissue injuries, and highlights the importance of prompt intervention to prevent long-term complications. Additionally, the review emphasizes the significance of effective communication and coordination among healthcare providers to deliver timely and coordinated care to trauma patients with dental emergencies.
