-===Fracture===
+{{Maxillofacial trauma DDX}}
-# Enamel
-## Routine f/u
-## Nothing to do
-# Enamel + dentin (yellowish)
-## Adult
-### Next day f/u
-### Consider placing calcium hydroxide paste over fracture site as needed for comfort
-## Child
-### Place calcium hydroxide paste
-#### More important in children than adults because children have less dentin to protect the pulp
-## Immediate referral
-# Enamel + dentin + pulp (reddish)
-## Immediate referral (dental emergency)
-## If no dentist is available, place moist cotton over exposed pulp and cover with foil or seal with canal sealant
-## Consider antibiotics (penicillin or clindamycin)
-===Subluxation===
-# Minimally mobile
-## Soft diet for 14 days
-# Markedly mobile
-## Immediate referral for stabilization
-## Temporizing measure: Periodontal pack in which tooth is bonded to its two neighboring teeth on both sides
-===Avulsion===
-# Dental emergency
-# Where is the tooth?
-## May be intruded, aspirated, swallowed, or embedded in the oral mucosa
-### Consider facial films, CXR
-# Adult
-## Replace avulsed tooth as soon as possible (as long as no alveolar ridge fx, no severe socket injury)
-### Rinse tooth in saline, suction socket (if necessary), reimplant tooth, bond tooth to neighboring teeth
-### Manipulate tooth only by the crown
-## Storage solution (in order of efficacy): Hank's balanced salt solution > Milk > saliva > saline
-##Tetanus vaccine if indicated
-##Consider antibiotics (penicillin or clindamycin)
-#Child
-##Do not reimplant primary teeth
-###Refer to pedodontist for space maintainer
-===Bleeding Socket===
+{{Facial swelling DDX}}
-# Apply pressure by having pt bite on gauze or tea bag
-== Odontogenic infections ==
-=== Dental Caries/Pulpitis ===
-#Two types: reversible pulpitis and irreversible pulpitis
-##Reversible Pulpitis
-###Duration of pain is short (seconds)
-###Associated with noxious stimuli (cold or heat)
-##Irreversible Pulpitis
-###Duration of pain is long (hours) and intense
-###Associated with noxious stimuli or may occur spontaneously
-###Tx = root canal or extraction
-=== Periapical Abcess ===
-#Treatment
-##I&D
-##Penicillin VK 500mg PO QID OR Clindamycin 300mg PO QID
-##Dental referral
-=== Trench Mouth (Acute Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis) ===
-====Background====
-#Severe gingival disease
-#Must distinguish from herpes gingivostomatitis
-##Herpes has more systemic signs, less bleeding, lack of interdental papilla involvement
-#Associated with immunosuppression, especially HIV
-====Clinical Features====
-#Triad of:
-##Pain
-##Ulcerated or "punched out" interdental papillae
-##Gingival bleeding
-#Secondary signs:
-##Fetid breath
-##"Wooden teeth" feeling
-##Teeth mobility
-##Fever
-##Malaise
-====Treatment====
-#Chlorhexidine 0.01% oral rinse BID
-#Metronidazole 500mg PO TID
-#Dental debridement and scaling
