title: [Dental autograft: a supplementary dimension in dental practice].
abstract: This article deals with the possibilities and limitations of autogenous transplantations. In properly selected cases (trauma, missing teeth,...), this procedure might be a valuable alternative treatment. The indications for transplantation, the surgical technique, the recipient site and the choice of the transplant are discussed. The most important parameters which influence the success of a transplantation are: the stage of root formation, the atraumatic removal and insertion of the germ, the final position of the transplant and the post-operative fixation. Clinical examples will illustrate some indications.
