Pulpal status after autogenous transplantation of fully developed maxillary canines.
By means of histologic and histochemical studies of oxidative enzymes, the pulps of transplanted fully developed maxillary canines have been evaluated after an observation period of 3 to 25 months. No pulp had survived the transplantation trauma, and endodontic treatment of fully developed transplant teeth was considered to be a prerequisite to an optimal clinical result.
