Treatment by Preplanned Virtual Autotransplantation of a Microdont Immature Third Molar to a Maxillary Central Incisor Socket Using a 3D Printed Tooth Replica: A Case Report

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An 18‐year‐old female patient presented to emergency dental clinic for avulsion of maxillary left central incisor (#21) in a car accident. In the presence of an immature left maxillary microdontic third molar (#28), a preplanned virtual autotransplantation using an implant planification software was chosen to replace #21.

Contrasting Responses Following Transverse Root Fractures in Two Maxillary Central Incisors: (a) Marginal Breakdown With Superimposed Infection and (b) Transient Internal Surface and Tunnelling Resorption. A Case Report of Management With a 34‐Year 9‐Month Follow‐Up

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An example of contrasting responses in two root fractured teeth in a 16‐year‐old male seriously injured in a hit‐and‐run motor accident is documented over a 34‐year 9‐month period. Extended non‐surgical endodontic management was necessary for one of the root‐fractured central incisors that had developed an infective marginal breakdown, and by ...
