Abstract :
The report presents examples of successful cases of autotransplantation of ectopic teeth as donor in the treatment of clinically
missing maxillary anterior teeth in young patients. The transplanted teeth were either severely ectopic, inverted, rotated or in an
unfavourable position that they are commonly sacrificed as a result. Details of surgical technique as well as clinical and radiographic
assessments were discussed.
