TITLE:
Autotransplantation of Teeth
Abstract
Autotransplantation of Teeth
Autotransplantation of teeth is today a well documented treatment method and is well suited for treatment of anterior tooth loss and tooth agenesis sites. Due to the unique osteogenic capacity of the graft, this procedure offers a treatment alternative, where both the lost tooth and the atrophied alveolar process can be replaced. Studies have demonstrated good long-term survival of these transplants, thus providing a realistic treatment alternative for tooth replacement in young individuals. Furthermore, this treatment procedure has its optimum of success in early childhood, a period where implants are definitively contraindicated. The key to successful tooth transplantation has been shown clinically and experimentally to be proper selection of grafts with adequate root development as well as the design of surgical techniques for atraumatic graft removal and graft insertion. These techniques will be presented and long-term prognosis will be presented in details.

Transplantation of premolars to the anterior maxilla after severe traumatic injuries. Outcome with interdisciplinary orthodontics and esthetic dentistry
Abstract
Transplantation of premolars to the anterior maxilla after severe traumatic injuries. Outcome with interdisciplinary orthodontics and esthetic dentistry
Autotransplantation of developing premolars to the maxillary anterior region is the preferred treatment alternative (and often the only realistic one) when one or several incisors have been lost after severe traumatic injuries in young persons. The outcome of interdisciplinary cooperation between orthodontics and prosthetic dentistry is equally dependent on both specialists. Noninvasive ultrathin enamel-bonded porcelain veneers (rather than porcelain crowns) on the transplanted premolars, as used by Dr. Sverker Toreskog for this lecture, and careful orthodontic management can restore the beauty and function of the natural dentition, even in the most difficult cases.

Tooth Transplantation at any age
Abstract
Tooth Transplantation at any age
authors: Dr. Dick Barendregt, Dr. Manfred Leunisse, Dr. Marcel Linssen
Since the first transplantations in the fifties of the last century, the advantages of the use of the patients own material were immediately clear. The disadvantage was that for a successful transplantation the root development of the donor teeth should be 2/3 to 3/4 of the fully developed length. In the literature transplantation of fully developed teeth has been described but the succesrate was not comparable to the transplantations with an open apex. Risk factors such as peri-apical inflammation and ankyloses were commonly described.
Since 2005 transplantation of fully developed teeth has been a routine procedure in Rotterdam with succes rates comparable to transplantation of teeth with open apices after 10 years. In this lecture a detailed description of this procedure will be presented. Topics which will be covered are indications for transplantation of fully developed teeth, timing for the endodontic treatment, moment of functional loading with orthodontic appliances and planning of the prothetic follow-up remodeling the transplanted tooth to the applicable location.
Curriculum vitae

TITLE:
Transplantation of developing wisdom teeth – indications and outcomes
Abstract
Transplantation of developing wisdom teeth – indications and outcomes
Developing wisdom teeth are often considered as donors in tooth transplantation, but the outcome is less predictable than premolar transplantation. This is related to more difficult surgical access and variable morphology of the third molars. Guidelines will be discussed for application of wisdom tooth transplantation in patients with congenitally missing teeth or to replace teeth with eruption disturbances. Also the surgical guidelines and orthodontic recommendations for selection of the best donors will be provided.
The presentation will also describe a simplified follow-up protocol for transplantation of developing teeth including critical aspects, which could lead to a sub-optimal outcome. Relevant studies related to transplantation of developing third molars will illustrate the reliable treatment outcome. The last part of the presentation will discuss the potential for regeneration of alveolar bone after transplantation of developing molars in contrast to of the alternative of dental implants. Comparison between dental implants and tooth transplants will be also highlighted.

TITLE:
Allograft bone augmentation of a traumatized or deficient alveolar ridge followed by tooth autotransplantation to replace missing teeth
Abstract
Allograft bone augmentation of a traumatized or deficient alveolar ridge followed by tooth autotransplantation to replace missing teeth
Brief Synopsis:
The autotransplantation of teeth offers a natural tooth replacement for our growing patients that have missing, ankylosed or non-restorable teeth. However, a deficiency in the alveolar ridge due to development or trauma increases the complexity of this treatment modality. This condition has usually required alveolar reconstruction with autologous bone prior to transplantation of the tooth. This presentation will review a less invasive approach utilizing allograft bone for augmentation of the deficient alveolar ridge followed by successful tooth transplantation in our young patients.

Trans-alveolar transplantation of impacted teeth – indications and outcomes. Bone preservation and regeneration in relation to tooth transplantation.
Abstract
Trans-alveolar transplantation of impacted teeth – indications and outcomes.
Bone preservation and regeneration in relation to tooth transplantation.
The lecture will provide information about planning and performing autotransplantation of impacted developing teeth (especially second premolars and lower canines). The description of the surgical technique and factors, which may influence the treatment outcome will be given and discussed.
The alveolar bone preservation and regeneration is an extremely important and promising aspect of autotransplantation of developing teeth. It will be demonstrated, using clinical examples, that those teeth may in some cases serve as a natural providers of bone growth and may help in regeneration of the alveolus in patients with bone defects.

Prognostic factors in clinical autotransplantation of teeth. A review over 30 years with special reference to life-table analysis
Cryopreservation of teeth for autotransplantation. Clinical success 28 years after cryopreservation and transplantation
Abstract
1. Prognostic factors in clinical autotransplantation of teeth. A review over 30 years with special reference to life-table analysis.
Success in transplantation of any tissue is based on prognostic factors of the primary criterion: survival of the graft. During the last 30 years, numerous clinical series of autotransplantation of teeth have been published, dealing with different prognostic factors on long-term survival of tooth graft.
Recent meta-analysis (Almpani et al 2015) of 3,000 transplantations in 36 prospective studies (excluding 800 studies including all retrospective studies, no randomized stydies present) revealed only one significant prognostic factor: root development of the graft.
Life-table stastistics, originally developed in the ensurance business, is used in evaluation of organ transplantation to reveal prognosis of grafts. The present survey of 11 prospective and retrospective studies of 6 controlled data materials, include 1,100 tooth transplantations with a follow-up of 3 to 45 years. The data material, include studies of more than 30 transplantations and follow-up periods of more than 3 years. Using different modalities of lifetable statistics, many of these studies reveal a series of relevant prognostic factors of various significance on the survival. With the limitations such comparison of different data materials demands, some of the prognostic factors with potentially significant impact on survival are evaluated: – apart from root development of the graft – tooth type, endodontic treatment, splinting, antibiotics, experience of the surgeon, private practice vs. university clinics, postoperative orthodontic treatment, and other factors of relevance to the long term survival of transplanted teeth.
2. Cryopreservation of teeth for autotransplantation. Clinical success 28 years after cryopreservation and transplantation.
Cryopreservation is an advanced method used in certain cases of autotransplantation where the graft is stored alive in a tooth bank for several days/months/years of delay, after removal of the donor tooth until the time of transplantation. Cryopreservation of teeth for transplantation is only relevant in seldom and selected cases such as some cleft patients, and some patients with the need for a time period between extraction of donor tooth and orthodontic creation of space the recipient region. Long-term clinical follow-up, with up to 28 years of survival of the graft, including pulpal- and periodontal healing after cryopreservation for years before transplantation, will be presented.

Autotransplatation of teeth with complete root formation – from indication to prognosis
Abstract
Autotransplatation of teeth with complete root formation – from indication to prognosis
Many clinical studies regarding autotransplantation with immature teeth have been reported since the 1950s. A large number of clinical studies on immature tooth transplantation have evaluated root development, pulpal healing, and root resorption after autotransplantation. In contrast, autotransplantation with complete root formation has been reported often since 1980. Autotransplantation of teeth with complete root formation is indicated for the replacement of one or more teeth that were lost because of dental caries or periodontitis in adult patients. However, autotransplantation of teeth with complete root formation sometimes fails; therefore, the main factors affecting prognosis of tooth autotransplantation in adult patients should be investigated. Since 1994, we have performed more than 50 autotransplantations of teeth with complete root formation annually at Niigata University Medical and Dental Hospital, Japan, and have evaluated their prognosis and prognostic factors. In this lecture, the details of autotransplantations of teeth with complete root formation in our hospital, Japan and the results of our studies will be presented.
