Management of Traumatic Tooth Avulsion Using 2-Octyl Cyanoacrylate Tissue Adhesive Splint: A Case Report

Many Australians living in the country ’s rural and remote areas do not have timely access to dentists.1 In addition, people in these areas have lower levels of access to general practitioners and nurses in comparison with those who reside in inner-regional and major city areas.2 Communities in rural and remote Australia are dispersed widely and generally lack the population concentrations to warrant a full-time dentist.3 This limited access to dentists results in patients with acute oral conditions presenting to other primary care providers such as general practitioners, hospital emergency departments, pharmacies, Aboriginal Hea lth Services, or periodic mobile dental clinics.
