A 3-year follow-up of a homotransplanted tooth from a tooth bank.

A successful case of homologous tooth transplantation is presented. A maxillary second premolar obtained from a tooth bank was implanted into a fresh central incisor extraction site. A 3-yr follow-up radiograph indicated satisfactory apical healing and minimal replacement resorption. Clinically, the transplantation site was free of symptoms and there was no evidence of periodontal disease or tooth mobility.
