title: Pulpal status after autogenous transplantation of fully developed maxillary canines.
abstract: 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.
