[Collision injuries on ski slopes (author's transl)].

A prospective study was carried out on ski accidents caused by collisions on ski slopes. The article defines the term "ski collision" and then reviews the authors' case histories of the last three years, taking the location and time of accident, the type of collision and injury into consideration. The authors have been able to prove that the collision type of injury differs from "normal" ski injury. The most striking difference in these injuries was found to be the increase in the frequency of visceral cranium trauma. The second difference concerns the incidence of thoracoabdominal injuries. The authors have attempted to point out a few prophylactic measures. A brief discussion deals with problems involving "slope regulations". Finally, the authors urgently recommend, in view of the risk of fatal injuries in collision accidents, to ensure quickest possible and careful transportation of accident victims to a versatile and well-equipped hospital.

[The Silcadraht adhesive splint--a new methods for the treatment of luxated teeth].

Splints for the immobilization of dislocated teeth have been attached to teeth with the enamal-cauterization-cement technique for the last six years at the Innsbruck Hospital. Semicircular silica wires proved to be so satisfactory with 92 patients that this method has now replaced the traditional splinting methods at our hospital. The secondary advantages are the simple production of the splint, painless application and removal, and complete protection of the periodontium. Occlusal disturbances are avoided, because the splints do not cover any of the occluding tooth surfaces.
