Abstract:
Autogenous tooth transplantation or autotransplantation is the alternative treatment to replace missing teeth and dental anomalies when there is a proper donor. Autotransplantation can provide satisfactory solutions for aesthetic, functional and occlusal problems. The success rate of autotransplantation is influenced by a number of pre-operative and post-operative factors like age of the patient, developmental stage and type of transplanted tooth, proper adaptation between the root surface of the transplanted tooth and the recipient site, atraumatic procedure, postoperative stabilization. Although dental implants have reached a quite acceptable success rates especially in the presence of a wisdom teeth autotransplantation should come to mind as an alternative treatment option.
Learning objectives:
- To define the autotransplantation indications
- To evaluate the criteria for the success of the treatment
- To discuss the pre-operative and post-operative factors
