치은연하로 파절된 전치부 치아의 외과적 정출술을 이용한 수복 증례

Abstract

This case report presents successful tooth intra-alveolar transplantation with crown-root fracture on maxillary central and lateral incisor. After endodontic treatment, the maxillary central and lateral incisor were extracted and three millimeters of the apex of the root was cut off extraorally. Then retrofilling was done with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). The teeth were rotated 180 degrees and fixed with resin-wire splint in a more coronal position so that enough tooth structure was exposed above the crest of alveolar bone. After 8 weeks, resin-wire splint was removed and definitive restoration was placed 4 weeks later. A long-term follow up examination revealed that the transplanted tooth was satisfactory in mastication and in clinical X-ray result.
