A Prospective Study on Autotransplantation of Mandibular Third Molars With Complete Root Formation.

ABSTRACT:

Study design

Autotransplantation, if possible, is a viable option for replacing a missing tooth when a donor tooth is available. The most typical tooth transplant is the transfer of a third molar to a first molar site. No immune reaction results from transplants of this nature. It restores the proprioceptive function and normal periodontal healing; thus, the patient can have a natural chewing feeling and natural biological response.

Objective

This study aims to evaluate the prognosis of autotransplanted mandibular third molar and also to evaluate the cost effectiveness of the treatment performed when compared to the other treatment modalities for prosthetic rehabilitation.

Methods

A prospective study was done in the Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Sardar P
