Sažetak

The presence of microorganisms in traumatized teeth was analyzed in
99 microbiological specimens of 54 traumatized teeth. The material was analyzed with regard to the age of trauma and the objective finding in the tooth. Microorganisms were isolated in 14 out of 29 (55%) intact teeth, in two cases they were verified microscopically, but did not grow iin culture and in 14 (58%) out of 24 teeth trauma was succeeded by caries or some treatment (tooth filling, canal filling or drainage). During the firs t two months after trauma in the intact teeth the only microorganism isolated by cultivation was Streptococcus pneumoniae, which leads to the conclusion that it represents a frequent cause of early pulp necrosis and periapical affection in luxated teeth. In cases where the teeth did not remain intact after trauma the microbiological finding was not so typical and it depended on the objective finding of the tooth itself.
