RESUMO
Background: Tooth autotransplantation is defined as the surgical repositioning of an autogenous tooth in another surgical site within the same individual. Aim: The aim of this research was to analyze the outcome of tooth transplantation using immature donor teeth compared with closed apex teeth and to compare differences between donor tooth positions on the arch. Methods: Electronic and manual literature searches were performed in different databases, including the National Library of Medicine (MEDLINE), EMBASE (OVID), Cochrane Central (CENTRAL), and the digital library of the Universitat Internacional de Catalunya (UIC University) from 1978 to March 2021. Studies were selected when they fulfilled the following criteria: only human prospective clinical studies, minimum sample size of 10 patients, minimum follow-up of 1 year, studies reporting or with at least deducible data on survival rates, immediate tooth autotransplantation with completed or incomplete root formation, and publications in the English language. A meta-analysis of random effects was developed to estimate the global effect measure of the survival rate, success rate, and root resorption involving the total sample, as well as open- and closed-apex groups. Results: Twenty-four articles were eligible for analysis. The Cohen's kappa corresponding to this review was 0.87, and the risk assessment was considered low-moderate for the included studies. Overall survival and success rates were 95.9% and 89.4%, respectively, with a mean follow-up of 4 years and an overall mean age of 25.2 ± 12.3 years. Closed apex teeth showed a survival rate of 3.9% lower than that of open apex teeth. Higher complication rates were found for both inflammatory external root resorption and replacement root resorption in the closed-apex group, without reaching statistical significance. Conclusions: Tooth autotransplantation is a viable treatment alternative, regardless of the apical condition, with high survival and success rates after a mean follow-up of 4 years. Open-apex donor teeth could be considered the gold-standard option, showing lower complication rates when compared to closed-apex donor teeth. Future randomized controlled clinical studies are needed to examine the long-term prognosis of this technique.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: A cohort prospective study was conducted to assess the three-dimensional positioning accuracy of the implant between pre-surgical and the final implant position using a static fully guided approach in the posterior area of the jaws. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 60 implants (30 patients) were digitally analyzed after superimposing the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) files obtained from the Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) pre- and post-implant placement. The software calculations included deviations at the implant shoulder and at the implant apex, global deviation (3D offset), and angle deviation. Statistical analysis was performed with α = 0.05. RESULTS: Considering the total number of implants, mesiodistal, buccolingual, and apicocoronal mean deviations at the shoulder and implant apex were equal or below 0.21 ± 0.69 mm, and only the buccolingual mean deviation at the apex reached up to 0.67 ± 1.06 mm. The mesiodistal and apicocoronal deviations were not statistically significant at both the shoulder and apex levels of the implant. The mean total angular deviation was 5.62° ± 4.09. The main limitation of this surgical approach was the requirement for a wide mouth opening. CONCLUSIONS: Static fully guided surgery for dental implant placement exhibits minimum deviations respect to presurgical planning. The main limitation in the posterior areas is the requirement for a wide mouth opening. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Even with minimum deviations clinically acceptable, precautions and safety margins must be respected when using static full-guided surgery to place dental implants.

BACKGROUND: Tooth autotransplantation is a valid method for replacing non-restorable teeth. This study aimed to assess mid-term survival and success of autotransplanted third molars and the clinical periodontal parameters and factors predicting successful periodontal attachment apparatus regeneration. METHODS: In total, 36 patients who had undergone extraction and subsequent autotransplantation of 36 third molars using virtual planning and computer-aided rapid prototyping models by an oral surgeon and endodontist were eligible. Probing pocket depth (PPD), gingival recession (REC), clinical attachment level (CAL), pulpal and periapical healing, root resorption, and radiographic bone loss (RBL) were evaluated. Additionally, a questionnaire evaluated patient-reported outcomes. RESULTS: The mean age of the participants was 30.2 years with a mean follow-up duration of 29.42 ± 14.56 months. The overall survival and success rates were 97.2% and 91.7%, respectively. No statistically significant differences were found in success and survival rates between open and closed apex groups or between compromised and intact buccal bone groups. No signs of pulp necrosis were found in the open apex group. Progressive replacement resorption was detected in one closed apex case. The mean PPD was 2.7 ± 0.45 mm for all transplanted teeth. REC was 0.13 mm higher in transplanted teeth than in previous hopeless teeth. CAL changes were neither clinically relevant (-0.17 ± 0.66 mm) nor statistically significant. The reported patient satisfaction was high. CONCLUSIONS: Autotransplantation of third molars is a predictable treatment method, with a 2.5-year cumulative tooth survival and success of 97.2% and 91.7%, respectively, which were not influenced by recipient site integrity or root development.

Horizontal and vertical reduction of the ridge has to be expected after tooth extraction. Immediate implant placement and provisionalization is a viable treatment option that can help to minimize those changes. Additionally, it can better meet a patient's expectations about the treatment, reducing time and invasiveness. The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the stability of the hard and soft tissues surrounding single immediate implants placed in the esthetic zone, as well as evaluating patient satisfaction. A total of 16 implants were placed, and 15 could be evaluated at the 3-year follow-up. Radiographic and clinical data was recorded after this period. Some marginal bone level reduction was detected after 3 years but was not statistically significant. The soft tissues, measured at 3 points, showed stability and even better positions with respect to the day of the final restoration placement. Patient satisfaction was analyzed using the modified Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire (OHIP-14), and high satisfaction values were reported. The implementation of a precise surgical and prosthetic protocol when an immediate implant is placed into a fresh extraction socket is likely to result in high survival and success rates combined with excellent patient satisfaction. After the 3-year follow-up, favorable results were present.

INTRODUCTION: Digital technology has been progressively introduced into tooth autotransplantation to enhance both treatment planning and surgery. The aim of this report was to describe a novel protocol for fully guided tooth autotransplantation. METHODS: This report includes 10 consecutive patients treated with a complete virtual planning and a multidrilling axis surgical guide in combination with the computer-aided rapid prototyping model. RESULTS: All transplanted teeth fulfilled the criteria for success over a mean follow-up duration of 13.1 months. No signs of progressive root resorption or pain were found during follow-up. One case required minimal adjustment of the surgical stent to allow correct seating, whereas a second case could not be performed fully guided because of limited mouth opening. CONCLUSIONS: Our protocol for fully guided tooth autotransplantation is a viable option that involves minimal bone preparation in a short surgical time. Future research should focus on further investigation of the benefits of this novel protocol in a larger sample.
