Root resorption associated with autotransplanted maxillary canine teeth.

G M Hall, P C Reade

    The British Journal of Oral Surgery
    |September 1, 1983
    PubMed
    Summary

    Autotransplanting maxillary canine teeth is a viable procedure, but root resorption remains a concern. Further research is needed to identify factors influencing resorption and optimize treatment protocols for successful tooth transplantation.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Dental Traumatology
    • Periodontology

    Background:

    • Autotransplantation of maxillary canine teeth is a recognized surgical procedure.
    • Root resorption is a known complication following tooth autotransplantation.
    • Identifying predictive factors for root resorption is crucial for improving outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review published outcomes of maxillary canine autotransplantation.
    • To prospectively evaluate factors associated with root resorption after autotransplantation.
    • To explore potential strategies for mitigating root resorption.

    Main Methods:

    • A prospective study involving 141 autotransplanted maxillary canine teeth in 113 patients.
    • Teeth were not root-treated unless resorption was evident.
    • Assessment of various clinical and radiographic factors potentially linked to root resorption.

    Main Results:

    • No single factor significantly predicted root resorption after maxillary canine autotransplantation.
    • A range of factors including patient age, tooth position, and surgical variables were analyzed.
    • The incidence and pattern of root resorption were documented.

    Conclusions:

    • While autotransplantation of maxillary canines shows promise, root resorption is a significant challenge.
    • Early endodontic treatment or a staged surgical approach may potentially reduce resorption rates.
    • Further investigation is warranted to refine autotransplantation techniques and improve long-term tooth survival.
