Remove attached nonviable soft tissue carefully e.g. with gauze. The best way to this has not yet been decided (See Future areas of research).
• Root canal treatment to the tooth can be carried out prior to replantation or later (See Endodontic considerations).
• In cases of delayed replantation, root canal treatment should be done either on the tooth prior to replantation, or it can be done 7–10 days later like in other replantation situations (See Endodontic considerations).
• Administer local anesthesia.
• Irrigate the socket with saline.
• Examine the alveolar socket. If there is a fracture of the socket wall, reposition it with a suitable
instrument.
• Replant the tooth.
• Suture gingival lacerations, if present.
• Verify normal position of the replanted tooth clinically and radiographically.
• Stabilize the tooth for 4 weeks using a flexible splint (See Splinting).
• Administration of systemic antibiotics (See Antibiotics).
