Impaired nutrition may be a result of poor contact between the recipient bed and the root surface of the transplanted tooth, and development of an interposed blood clot.

Article Synopsis
  • Preservation of tooth vitality is critical for successful transplantation, as inadequate contact with the recipient site can lead to cell necrosis and graft failure.
  • The two-stage technique, where the recipient site is allowed to heal for 14 days before transplantation, has shown better outcomes compared to the one-stage method, resulting in lower graft loss and root resorption.
  • An experimental study on beagle dogs was conducted to compare both techniques, but after histological examinations, no significant differences in root resorption were found between the two methods despite initial clinical observations.
