[The possibility of orthodontic therapy in transplanted teeth].
The paper reports four cases of tooth transplant: two teeth were transplanted once they were fully mature (completely formed roots) and two were transplanted as germs. Having documented the clinical and radiological recovery for all four teeth, orthodontic braces were applied for a variety of reasons. In the two cases of teeth transplanted once the roots had completely formed it was impossible to move the teeth, whereas in the case of the germ transplants the teeth were quickly moved to a correct occlusal position. On the basis of these different reactions, the author assesses the possibility of histological recovery of the tooth transplant. Repeated radiographic controls showed anomalies in radicular formation and of the camera pulposa. Lastly, the paper discusses the optimal time to transplant a tooth germ.
