How To Replace and Splint an Avulsed Tooth
Positioning
Position the patient inclined and with the occiput supported. Turn the head and extend the neck such that the avulsion site is accessible. For the lower jaw, use a semi-recumbent sitting position, making the lower occlusal plane roughly parallel to the floor when the mouth is open. For the upper jaw, use a more supine position, making the upper occlusal plane roughly 60 to 90 degrees to the floor.
