Abstract:
Twenty-six teeth with crown-root fractures have been subjected to intraalveolar transplantation. In 13 teeth the endodontic treatment was instituted before transplantation and in another 13 teeth 3-4 weeks after transplantation. Bacteriological tests showed that endodontic treatment after transplantation was preferable with statistically fewer treatments and more reliable results. The results thus points in favour of a late endodontic treatment with controlled aseptic conditions.
