- Autotransplantation is a surgical approach used to reposition teeth, particularly impacted canines, which are more common in females and may be embedded due to late eruption.
- *The systematic review examined 11 studies with 395 canine transplants, showing higher success rates in younger females, with long-term survival rates of up to 67.9% after over 21 years.
- *While autotransplantation can be effective, complications and patient satisfaction are under-researched, highlighting the need for better consensus guidelines in treatment decisions.*
Background: Intraoral orthodontic elastics (IOE), typically referred to as rubber bands, are important tools for correcting malocclusion, and they are classified into latex and synthetic (elastomeric-based) elastics. They have different strengths and sizes, depending on their intended use, that provide clinicians with the ability to correct both anteroposterior and vertical discrepancies. Clinical use, together with saliva, alters the physical characteristics of both latex and synthetic elastics, causing declines in strength over time.
