The management of traumatic dental injuries (TDI) often poses a clinical challenge that affects dentist, patients and their families. Treatment of TDI sequalae can be complex, time consuming, expensive and often requires multidisciplinary collaboration. Through a series of clinical case presentations, this session will show the role of the endodontist in the diagnosis and management of complications of TDI through incorporation of the dental trauma guidelines, contemporary literature and clinical experience.

Learning Objectives:

Articulate how to utilize the dental trauma guidelines and how to make modifications on a case by case basis
Outline endodontic complications following dental trauma and their management
Review the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in the treatment of complications following TDI
