Abstract

Background: Dental avulsion is the most serious dentoalveolar traumas because its management requires immediate reimplantation to maintain the periodontal ligament. The success of the treatment depends largely on the appropriate storage medium that ensures the viability of the periodontal cells. The purpose of this review was to identify the most efficient media to store and transport avulsed permanent teeth, according to the viability of the periodontal ligament cells. Methods: The Scopus, Web of Science and PubMed electronically searched using the keywords “Storage media”; “Avulsed teeth”; and “Periodontal ligament”. The inclusion criteria were in vitro studies and articles published in English. The exclusion criteria were literature reviews, studies in primary teeth, studies in animals, and cell culture studies. Results: Hank’s saline solution and honey were equally effective, maintaining a cell viability rate of 98.89% and 96.43%, respectively, over a period of 3 hours. Ringer’s lactate solution maintained the viability of 906.40 viable cells/mm3 at 1 hour. Propolis maintained the viability of 285,000 cells/mm3 at 45 minutes, and the Neem extract maintained a cell viability rate of 88% at 30 minutes. Conclusions: Hank’s saline solution is the most effective storage medium for maintaining the viability of periodontal cells in avulsed teeth.
