在撕脱中，牙齿整体移位出骨窝。男孩，年龄在7-9岁，最容易发生上颌中切牙撕脱。牙齿撕脱最好立即再植。由于治疗的紧迫性，处理这种伤害的人员应该有急救处理的知识。本研究旨在评估巴基斯坦拉合尔的牙医、医生、学生、学校教师和公众对牙齿撕脱的急救知识。数据收集使用一个开放式的问题，关于创伤性撕脱的急救治疗的形式。377名受访者中有10.1%的人建议立即再植。在牙医中，45.8%的人建议立即再植，其余的人建议将牙齿运送到牙医那里再植。在所有其他组（非牙医）中，4.6%的人建议立即再植，3.3%的人建议将其运送到牙医那里。巴基斯坦的非牙医，包括医生，对牙齿撕脱的立即治疗知识不足。相比之下，牙医的知识要多得多，但可能需要在选择适当的治疗方案以及处理和护理撕脱牙方面进行培训。
In avulsion, teeth are bodily displaced out of the bony socket. Boys, aged 7-9 years, are most prone to avulsion of maxillary central incisors. Tooth avulsion should ideally be treated with immediate replantation. Because of the urgency in treatment, personnel dealing with this injury should have knowledge about the first-aid treatment. This study was conducted to assess the first-aid knowledge about tooth avulsion among dentists, doctors, students, school teachers and the general public in Lahore, Pakistan. Data were collected using a form with one open-ended question about the first-aid treatment of traumatic avulsion. Immediate replantation of the avulsed tooth was suggested by 10.1% of 377 respondents. Among dentists, 45.8% suggested immediate replantation, with the rest suggesting transport of the tooth to a dentist for replantation. Among all other groups (non-dentists) immediate replantation was suggested by 4.6% and transport to a dentist by 3.3%. Non-dentists in Pakistan, including doctors, have insufficient knowledge about the immediate treatment of tooth avulsion. Dentists, in comparison, have significantly more knowledge, but may need training in selection of the appropriate treatment option and handling and care of the avulsed tooth.
