A case report of intraalveolar transplantation of teeth with crown-root fractures

Injuries resulting in fractures of the teeth may be treated in different ways, depending on the location of the fracture. Fractures of the middle or apical third of the root may be heal spontaneously after conservative endodontic treatment. However, the split-fracture extending from the gingival region on the buccal side deep to the palatal side, where the fracture is several millimeters below the marginal bone, is difficult to treat both from an endodontic and a prosthetic point of view. Extraction was formerly used in many cases, followed by bridge construction. Intraalveolar transplantation using a simple extraction technique with extrusion and rotation of the root sufficiently to allow crown preparation was performed in a case of crown-root fracture. There is a favorable result without any complication and the author introduces this technique with the review of literature.
