Autogenous Tooth Transplantation:A Case Report with Three-Year Follow-Up
Abstract
In Thailand, it is commonly considered that autogenous tooth transplantation can only be performed by oral surgeons. Though the author is an oral surgeon, a general dental practitioner who can carry out simple surgery can also perform autogenous tooth transplantation with good functional results and significant cost savings over other options for carefully selected patients. This report presents a case of a 16 year-oldThai male patient who underwent autogenous tooth transplantation following the surgical technique recommended by Dr. Clokie et al. The right mandibular third molar was transplanted to the right mandibular second molar showing successful results with radiographic follow-up for three years.
