초록

Autotransplantation is a viable option for the treatment of a missing tooth or for replacement of avulsed and traumatized tooth when there is a donor tooth available. The maintenance of healthy periodontal ligament cells in the donor tooth is one of the most important factors for successful tooth transplantation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prognosis and the cause of failure in 182 auto-transplanted teeth. A total of 182 cases which received the auto-transplantation in Department of Conservative dentistry, Yonsei Dental Hospital were included in this study.(omitted)
