EMS Protocol of the Week - Avulsed Tooth (Adult and Pediatric)

While EMS aren’t reimplanting extremities (yet), they ARE able to reimplant avulsed teeth! This week’s protocol goes over indications and contraindications, as well as how to best replace a tooth in a socket as a temporizing measure. Pay particular attention to the Key Points section, which also gives a refresher on appropriate storage media if implantation is impossible. 

Another short one this week, but nevertheless something to…chew on?

www.nycremsco.org or the protocol binder or honestly your cousin’s old book of puns for probably a lot of the same content.
