The Apical Tooth Replantation with Surgical Intrusion Technique (ATR-SIT) for the Regenerative Treatment of Hopeless Teeth: A Report of Two Cases.

The present clinical report introduces a novel surgical procedure, the apical tooth replantation with surgical intrusion technique (ATR-SIT), for managing teeth with a hopeless prognosis compromised with a severe endoperiodontal lesion, pathologic tooth migration, and gingival recession. Two cases are presented that manage teeth diagnosed with a hopeless prognosis. ATR-SIT involves tooth extraction, extraoral root debridement, root surface conditioning, apicoectomy, retrograde filling, and the application of enamel matrix derivatives prior to reimplantation.

Two-stage approach for class II mandibular furcation defect with insufficient keratinized mucosa: a case report with 3 years' follow-up.

Periodontal regenerative treatment is useful for intrabony defects and furcation involvement, but is difficult when there is insufficient keratinized mucosa to cover and maintain the regenerative material, particularly in the mandibular molar region. We report the case of a 27-year-old woman who underwent a two-stage surgical approach for a class II furcation defect with gingival recession and insufficient keratinized mucosal width (KMW) and vestibular depth at the mandibular left first molar. We first improved the KMW and keratinized mucosal thickness using an epithelial embossed connective tissue graft with enamel matrix derivative, and then focused on periodontal regeneration at the furcation defect using an enamel matrix derivative and a bovine-derived xenograft.

Efficacy of flapless intentional replantation with enamel matrix derivative in the treatment of hopeless teeth associated with endodontic-periodontal lesions: A 2-year prospective case series.

Objective: In this prospective case series, the effects of flapless intentional replantation (IR) with root surface conditioning with enamel matrix derivative (EMD) was evaluated for the treatment of periodontally-endodontally involved hopeless teeth.

Method And Materials: A total of 17 teeth (17 patients, aged 40 to 73) with ≥ 10 mm attachment loss and radiographic bone loss to the apex were included in the study. The affected teeth were atraumatically extracted using a flapless approach, then granulation tissues, calculus, and necrotic cementum on the root surfaces were removed.
