Intentional Replantation
The intervention involves intentional replantation (IR) of periodontally compromised single-rooted teeth. Patients are selected based on criteria ensuring no vertical root fractures and potential for restoration. Preoperative preparation includes radiographic evaluation (CBCT/periapical), scaling, and root planing, along with antibiotic prophylaxis. The tooth is extracted non-traumatically using periotomes to preserve the periodontal ligament (PDL). After extraction, the tooth is stored in a sterile medium and granulation tissue is excised. Optional modifications (apical resection, retrograde filling, or surface treatment) may be performed. The tooth is then replanted into the socket, secured with a non-rigid splint, and occlusal adjustment is made. Postoperative care includes analgesics, antibiotics, and chlorhexidine rinse. Follow-ups are scheduled at 1 week, 4 weeks, and 9 months for evaluation of healing, survival, and patient-reported outcomes.
