  • Title: Multiple congenitally missing teeth: treatment outcome with autologous transplantation and orthodontic space closure.
    Author: Fiorentino G, Vecchione P.
    Journal: Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop; 2007 Nov; 132(5):693-703. PubMed ID: 18005846.
    Abstract:
    Treatment for patients with congenitally missing teeth can be challenging. The treatment options include retaining the deciduous teeth, extracting the deciduous teeth and allowing the space to close spontaneously, implant replacement, autotransplantation, prosthetic replacement, and orthodontic space closure. Autologous transplantation and space closure with orthodontic appliances are demonstrated in this case report.
