| Popis: | Introduction Autogenous transplantation of a natural tooth to another site has significant advantages over dental implants, particularly in cases of agenesis, accidental tooth loss, or poor prognosis for the maintenance of tooth function. Methods This report describes a case of autogenous premolar transplantation into an artificial socket in the site of a missing maxillary lateral incisor in a 13-year-old girl. Clinical examination and radiography revealed tooth agenesis (#4, #10, #13, and #20) and microdontia (#7). The occlusion and skeletal maxillomandibular relations were normal. Results Tooth #29 was chosen for transplantation into the site of tooth #10 because of its size, stage of root formation, and possible closure of the spaces created by agenesis. Conclusions Autogenous transplantation is a feasible alternative to dental implants in cases of tooth agenesis or tooth loss because of trauma. Autotransplantation was indicated in this case because it ensures the natural (facial) growth of the alveolar process and preserves the function of periodontal tissues. A multidisciplinary approach (ie, combining techniques from different dental specialties) was important for treatment success. Clinical and radiographic follow-up confirmed that the transplanted premolar was esthetically comparable with the lateral incisor and that root development and pulp canal obliteration were complete. |
