Intentional Replantation: An Updated Protocols in Endodontic Retreatment

Abduljabbar F, Attar S, Alghamdi F, Bakhsh A

Intentional replantation (IR) is a concept that has been known for over a thousand years, it is defined by Grossman (1966) as an atraumatic extraction of a tooth and its reinsertion into its socket immediately after endodontic treatment and apical repair is done extra-orally. Some authors consider intentional replantation to be a last option; whereas others consider it as another treatment modality. However, in cases where a dental implant, nonsurgical retreatment or surgical treatment is not possible, intentional replantation may be a viable treatment option. Recent case reports have demonstrated that with good case selection, intentional replantation can be a reliable and predictable procedure.
