Transplanting teeth successfully: autografts and allografts that work



AS Cohen, TC Shen, and MA Pogrel
University of Illinois at Chicago, School of Dentistry 60612, USA.

This article suggests tooth transplantation as an alternative to other restorative options. The 10-year success rates for autografts--teeth moved from one location to another in a patient's mouth--range from 60 percent to 95 percent. Allografts, teeth moved from one person to another, are less successful. The authors report on one case of each type of transplant.
