Popis: | Transalveolar transplantation of 31 maxillary canines in 26 patients was performed. Fixed orthodontic appliances were used for fixation for 6 to 8 weeks. All the transplanted teeth were firmly affixed in the new positions 3 to 6 months postoperatively. Complete bone regeneration and an attached gingiva with a stippled surface buccally and a normal pocket depth were observed 1 to 2 years postoperatively. These positive treatment results indicate that transalveolar transplantation is a useful alternative in the treatment of impacted maxillary canines in selected patients. |
