Intentional replantation.
Intentional replantation is an accepted endodontic procedure for treating teeth in cases in which intracanal and/or surgical endodontic treatments are not recommended. Although not a frequently used technique, intentional replantation is a treatment option that dentists should consider. An unusual case is described in which intentional replantation was required to maintain the tooth in the dentition. A 31 month follow-up evaluation revealed an asymptomatic, functional tooth with no radiographic signs of pathosis.
