While Landau has been lucky in avoiding serious head, brain and dental injury, he has represented clients with significant dental work, disfigurement, plastic surgery, tooth loss, concussions and permanent brain damage from accidents. The severity of a dental injury (fractured, displaced, chipped or avulsed tooth) may not be immediately apparent.  Often dental injuries are associated with other head and neck injuries from bike crashes and falls, such as fractured facial bones, concussions, abrasions, bruises, soft tissue lacerations with bleeding, and jaw-joint problems.  Thus, the injured athlete should be assessed immediately, if not sooner, for medical complications, including his\/her ability to spontaneously maintain an airway, poor control of bleeding, shock, broken bones, and neurological impairment.  Delay often complicates later medical and dental treatment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Believe it or not, sports competition, even in non-contact endurance sports, can result in dental injury according to TriathlonTrialLawyer Doug Landau.
