Transplantation of one's own teeth from one site to another is called dental autotransplantation. The role of autotransplantation of teeth in several clinical situations, the clinical techniques involved and factors influencing success of the transplant are discussed. Autotransplantation of impacted or retained teeth is an appropriate treatment, if orthodontic traction has failed, especially in growing patients.

Autotransplantation of tooth has recently become a combined method with orthodontic therapy. With the use of autotransplantation, it has become possible for orthodontists to solve complicated problems in the dental arches. Autotransplanted teeth showed the same development as their contralaterals with respect to both eruption and root growth. This indicates that autotransplantation and orthodontic treatment is a method that should be considered in case of impacted, missing, or malformed teeth. In this report two cases are presented to demonstrate that orthodontic treatment with autotransplantation can contribute to more satisfactory solution to the problem for impacted teeth.

Clinicians often meet the growing patient who is not treated with fixed prosthesis until alveolar bone growth is completed. When both esthetic and function needs are important, and if proper donor tooth is present, the application of autotransplantation may be better treatment option than space maintainer. Although prognosis of autotransplantation is not always favorable, it depends on the treatment design which is based on the ability of case selection and consideration. This report will present the clinical cases of autotransplantation in growing patient, and discuss about several clinical aspects of autotransplantation.

Treatments for restoring the function and esthetics of missing teeth include fixed bridge, partial denture, orthodontic movement, implantation and autotransplantation. However, there is no absolute indications for each techniques. Due to undevelopment of root and root resorption after autotransplantation, the success rate of autotransplantation over the past decades have been low. Recently. with the study on biological principles of the healing of periodontal ligament, the success rate of autotransplantation began to improve. We report the cases of successful autotransplantation which resulted in ideal healing of periodontal ligament, gingiva and alveolar bone.

Purpose: Dentigerous cyst is the most common intra-osseous lesion of the jaw. Dentigerous cysts can cause delays in eruption of the affected permanent tooth in mixed dentition. It has been suggested that the affected permanent tooth could be erupted spontaneously after the dentigerous cyst was enucleated. But in some cases, orthodontic treatment or autotransplantation technique is known to be required. This study reviews previously performed prognoses of affected permanent teeth, which will lead to a more efficient treatment plan. Patients and Methods: With 28 patients who have undergone cyst enucleation and 10 patients who have undergone autotransplantation, the prognosis of permanent teeth was observed. Results: After cyst enucleation, spontaneous eruption of a permanent tooth was observed in 56.3% patients, orthodontic treatment was performed in 25% patients. The success rate of autotransplantation was 60.0%. Discussion: The first choice for treatment of dentigerous cyst in mixed dentition is to guide spontaneous eruption of permanent teeth. For cases without enough eruption space, the orthodontic treatment should be considered. Autotransplantation should be considered when the spontaneous eruption is not expected. It should be considered that the rate of successful autotransplantation is decreased on maxilla anterior area.

상악 견치의 매복은 소아치과 의사가 흔히 접할 수 있는 맹출장애이며, 이를 방치하였을 경우 인접치의 치근 흡수, 낭종 형성 등의 임상적인 문제점을 유발할 수 있다. 이에 대한 치료는 간단한 유치 발치에서부터 매복치아의 교정적 견인, 외과적 자가이식 등 다양한 방법을 고려할 수 있다. 이 중 자가 이식은 매복치아가 교정적 견인술을 시행하기 어려운 위치에 존재하거나 재위치 시키는데 실패했을 경우에 매복치아의 발거에 앞서 고려할 수 있으며, 그 예후는 치근의 완성도, 환자연령, 외과적 술식, 근관치료 시기, 치아고정 기간 등에 의해 결정된다. 본 두 증례들은 혼합치열기 말기에 상악 견치가 매복된 환자에서 그 매복 위치가 자발적인 맹출 유도나 교정적 견인 및 배열이 어렵다고 판단된 경우이며, 자가 이식 후 근관치료와 교정 치료를 시행하고 현재까지 성공적으로 유지되고 있어 보고하는 바이다.

The autotransplantation procedure were performed for the cases with impacted maxillary anterior teeth, which were thought unrealistic by the treatment with surgical exposure and orthodontic traction into the arches. The results were as follow : 1. As the treatment with autotransplantation is the last resort, the case indicated should be selected cautiously by adequate case analysis. 2. In order to reduce postoperative complication, damages to periodontal ligaments and adjacent bony structures should be minimized by conservative surgical procedures. 3. After autotransplantation procedures, postoperative endodonic treatment and continuous follow-up check with clinical and radiographic examination should be followed. Although the autotransplantation procedure is not the treatment of choice in most cases, it was thought to be a good alternative in certain cases when orthodontic treatment is unrealistic with continuous study to overcome the handicaps.

Autotransplantation is a procedure which transplants teeth from the original position to other positions in the same individual. It is classified surgical reposition by intraalveolar autotransplantation and transalveolar autotransplantation. The prognosis for successful autotransplantation is dependent on a number of factors such as root development, surgical technique, patient's age, endodontic treatment, time and type of splinting, preservation of periodontal ligament and storage medium. The most important factor is preservation of periodontal ligament. The cause of the failure of transplantation include damage of the transplant during removal from deep palatal malposition, poor regeneration of the bone around the transplant and chronic periodontal infection. In case I, Impacted maxillary canine for which surgical exposure and orthodontic treatment was impossisle was transplanted. After 2 weeks, It showed periapical radiolucency and external root resorption. So, endodontic treatment was done. One year later, permanent filling was done with gutta percha. In case II, Transpositioned maxillary central incisor was transplanted after extraction of impacted mesiodens. Pulp vitality was maintained during 5 months without other clinical symptons.

The extracted right mandibular third molar of a 37-year-old man was transplanted into the first molar area, and a bone graft procedure using autogenous tooth-bone graft material was performed for the space between the root and the alveolar socket. Reattachment was achieved after 10 months. Therefore, autogenous tooth-bone graft material is considered reasonable for bone induction and healing in the autotransplantation of teeth.

Autotransplantation is the transplantation of embeded, impacted, or unerupted tooth, into extraction socket or surgically prepared socket in the same individual. Clinically, successful autotransplantation must show radiolucent space(periodontal ligament space) between transplanted tooth and supporting bone, lamina dura, no root resorption, no ankylosis, no inflammatory change, and physiologic tooth mobility. It is important that procedure is atraumatic, and the instruments should not contact the root surface during procedure. We performed autotransplantation of impacted mandibular canine that transversely located beneath the apices of the mandibular incisors with uncompletely developed apex. In radiographs and clinical evaluation, this transplant showed successful clinical finding except irregularity of mesial root surface after 14 months. It is conclued that transplantation of canine with $\frac{1}{2}{\sim}\frac{3}{4}$ root development provides a good chance of pulp survival, limited risk of root resorption and ensures sufficient final length, and is thus recommended.
