Bone maintenance: implant versus transplant.

L B Shulman, P A Schnitman

    Biomaterials, Medical Devices, and Artificial Organs
    |January 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary

    Dental implants cause bone loss, while allogeneic tooth transplants offer a viable alternative with less bone loss. For fresh extraction sockets, tooth allotransplants are the preferred root replacement option.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral surgery
    • Dental implantology
    • Regenerative dentistry

    Background:

    • Bone maintenance is crucial for dental restoration success.
    • Dental implants, despite wide use, lead to progressive peri-implant bone loss.
    • Allogeneic tooth transplants face limitations like size and antigenicity, causing root resorption.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the efficacy of dental implants versus allogeneic tooth transplants for root replacement.
    • To evaluate bone loss associated with each tooth-replacement modality.
    • To determine the optimal choice for fresh extraction sockets.

    Main Methods:

    • Comparative analysis of dental implant and allogeneic tooth transplant outcomes.
    • Assessment of peri-implant bone loss.
    • Evaluation of predictability and survival rates.

    Main Results:

    • Dental implants exhibit progressive peri-implant bone loss.
    • Allogeneic tooth transplants show less residual bone loss compared to implants.
    • Predictability and survival times are comparable between the two methods.

    Conclusions:

    • Allogeneic tooth transplants are a promising alternative to dental implants.
    • For fresh extraction sockets with adequate space, tooth allotransplants are recommended over implants.
    • Further research may explore optimizing allotransplant integration to minimize resorption.
