Fused teeth may cause aesthetic, spacing, periodontal, eruption, and caries problems. The present case report describes a 7-year-old boy patient with a chief complaint of unerupted maxillary incisor. Radiographic examination indicated a fused tooth which had two fused roots but two independent root canals. A complex management of a fused tooth is really difficult to standardize. In this case an...

Several growth factors have been used in tissue regeneration therapy. Here we describe the use of an autologous blood clot combined with gelatin for teeth affected by severe periodontitis and vertical root fracture treated using three oral surgical procedures: periodontal flap surgery, intentional tooth replantation (IR), and tooth autotransplantation. Treatment with a blood clot improved the c...

The aim of the report is to document 15-month results of mucogingival surgery applied following intentional replantation (IntR). A mandibular left lateral incisor with severe periodontitis and malposition was replanted and splinted following root canal treatment. Three months after IntR, a free gingival graft (FGG) was placed. Fifteen months follow-up of the case demonstrated significant improv...

This European Society of Endodontology (ESE) position statement on surgical extrusion, intentional replantation and tooth autotransplantation represents the consensus an expert committee, convened by ESE. A narrative review in International Endodontic Journal (Plotino et al. 2020, international Journal, 53, 1636–52) formed basis for statement. The provided detailed information background, clini...

This paper describes the utility of three-dimensional (3D) images obtained with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for prediction of successful clinical outcome in two cases of intentional tooth replantation (IR). IR was performed for teeth affected by vertical root fracture and root perforation with local application of blood clot and oxy-tetracycline antibiotic. High-resolution 3D images de...
