12 Classification of Dental Injuries and Their Management

13 Subluxation An injury to the tooth supporting structures resulting in increased mobility, but without displacement of the tooth.

14 Extrusion Partial displacement of the tooth out of its socket

15 Lateral luxation Displacement of the tooth accompanied by a fracture of the labial or lingual bone

16 Splinting

17 Intrusion Displacement of the tooth into the alveolar bone

18 Avulsion The tooth is completely displaced out of its socket

19 Keep the patient calm. Find the tooth and pick it up by the crown If the tooth is dirty, wash it briefly (10 seconds) under cold running water and reposition it. If this is not possible, place the tooth in a suitable storage medium, e.g. a glass of milk or a special storage media for avulsed teeth if available (e.g. Hanks balanced storage medium or saline) Seek emergency dental treatment immediately.

20

21 Restoration with a Dental Implant

22 Enamel fracture A fracture confined to the enamel with loss of tooth structure.

23

24 Enamel-dentin fracture A fracture confined to enamel and dentin with loss of tooth structure, but not involving the pulp.

25

26 Enamel-dentin-pulp fracture A fracture involving enamel and dentin with loss of tooth structure and exposure of the pulp.

27 Root Canal Therapy

28 Root fracture A fracture confined to the root of the tooth involving cementum, dentin, and the pulp.

29 Alveolar fracture A fracture of the alveolar process; may or may not involve the alveolar socket.

30

31 Fracture of mandible or maxilla A fracture involving the base of the mandible or maxilla and often the alveolar process (jaw fracture).

39 REIMBURSEMENT

40 The Dilemma Very few dentists will accept Workers Comp /No Fault cases Low reimbursement rates A ton of paperwork A hassle to get paid

41 Unlike physicians, chiropractors, podiatrists, ophthalmologists and psychiatrists-dentists do not have to be authorized by the Workers Comp Board

42 The National Law Review June 9,2015 Dental claims may be rare, but they are one of the most expensive types of workers comp claims

43 Due to infrequency many claims professionals have limited knowledge of dental terminology, coding and billing procedures Average dental claim requires 17 provider visits Any trauma involving the neck up usually involves dental injury Traditionally relied upon preferred provider organizations(ppo) to render treatment

44 Recommendation To recruit dentists who understand and are willing to work within the workers comp system Dentists perform a prospective oral examination to determine what is billable in relation to work related injury Clinical team needs to recognize when a payer is not liable for entire dental history(pre existing conditions)

45 The Dreaded TMJ Case One of the most costly dental injuries Treatment can easily exceed $100,000 in costs Need network in place providing clinical oversight

46

47

48 Workers Comp and the Team Dentist A unique situation Hockey is required to have a dentist and orthopedic doctor at every game Already have an established relationship with the team, the parent club, coaches, front office and most importantly the trainers

49

50 Team Dentists are responsible for the home team, the visiting team as well as the officials.

51 A Change in Reimbursement In past claim was submitted directly to trainer who would then forward it to parent club who would eventually simply pay the bill Now is treated like any other job related dental injury
