  • Title: Intra-alveolar transplantation of deeply fractured roots after elongation with titanium roots screws.
    Author: Bühler H.
    Journal: Gen Dent; 1996; 44(1):36-43; quiz 45-6. PubMed ID: 8940568.
    Abstract:
    Teeth with deep transverse or oblique fractures have posed severe challenges for treatment in the past. Today, such teeth can be saved by transplantation within the alveolus. In this pilot study, a technique is described by means of which roots otherwise determined to be too short can be salvaged. Fourteen fractured short roots were extracted carefully, elongated with titanium screws, and subsequently replanted.
