Dr. Nash will cover the indications and orthodontic aspects of the technique, providing valuable tips and tricks to achieve the best possible outcome for patients. Mr. Austin will cover the surgical considerations and technique.

Autotransplantation is a procedure that more dentists should be aware of and consider for patients with dental trauma or ectopic teeth with poor prognosis. The added benefit of transplantation over implants is it can be performed in growing individuals, providing a quicker aesthetic and biological option for patients. Using modern 3D technology and surgical techniques, autotransplantation has become a viable alternative for patients with severe trauma or hopeless prognosis, leading to a better quality of life.
