Dent.

The advantages of this technique compared to conventional prostheses and surgical treatments, such as dental implants, are discussed. A 27-year-old patient with no relevant medical history was evaluated for pain and discomfort in fractured teeth with previous endodontic treatments and odontogenic sinusitis. A non-restorable maxillary first molar was diagnosed and extracted and replaced with a previously endodontically treated maxillary third molar, for which a 3D-printed replica was used to reshape the alveolar site. The intervention was successful, after which an adequate clinical and radiographic follow-up was carried out for 3\u2005years, showing good bone formation and continuity of the periodontal ligament, with no signs of pathological resorption. This case demonstrates that, when properly planned and executed, dental autotransplantation can be an effective and biological alternative for dental rehabilitation, especially with the use of advanced technologies, such as cone beam computed tomography and 3D-printed replicas of donor teeth.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fdmed.2025.1607035","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,13]],"date-time":"2025-06-13T05:51:09Z","timestamp":1749793869000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Case Report: Dental autotransplantation for the resolution of odontogenic sinusitis using 3D replication"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"Henry Paul","family":"Valverde Haro","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adriana Denisse","family":"Erazo Conde","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"202","DOI":"10.1111\/adj.12966","article-title":"Anterior tooth autotransplantation: a case series","volume":"68","author":"Ong","year":"2023","journal-title":"Aust Dent J"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"761","DOI":"10.1186\/s12903-024-04545-7","article-title":"Knowledge, attitudes, and practices among patients with combined dentition defect and non-functional impacted teeth toward tooth autotransplantation","volume":"24","author":"Zhao","year":"2024","journal-title":"BMC Oral Health"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.3390\/bioengineering10091058","article-title":"Dental auto transplantation success rate increases by utilizing 3D replicas","volume":"10","author":"Kizek","year":"2023","journal-title":"Bioengineering (Basel)"},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"358","DOI":"10.1111\/edt.12495","article-title":"Long-term outcomes of autotransplantation of teeth: a case series","volume":"35","author":"Tsukiboshi","year":"2019","journal-title":"Dent Traumatol"},{"key":"B5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"20","DOI":"10.1111\/edt.12379","article-title":"Autotransplantation of teeth to the anterior maxilla: a systematic review of survival and success, aesthetic presentation, and patient-reported outcome","volume":"34","author":"Akhlef","year":"2018","journal-title":"Dent Traumatol"},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e241","DOI":"10.4317\/medoral.26233","article-title":"New complementary alternatives in third molar autotransplantation: a systematic review","volume":"29","author":"Aravena-Salazar","year":"2024","journal-title":"Med Oral Patol Oral Cir Bucal"},{"key":"B7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"475","DOI":"10.1016\/j.adaj.2024.01.006","article-title":"Advancements in tooth autotransplantation","volume":"155","author":"Dokova","year":"2024","journal-title":"J Am Dent Assoc"},{"key":"B8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"391","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2020.11.013","article-title":"Success, survival rate, and soft tissue esthetic of tooth autotransplantation","volume":"47","author":"Coutinho","year":"2021","journal-title":"J Endod"},{"key":"B9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2","DOI":"10.1111\/edt.12836","article-title":"Tooth autotransplantation: an umbrella review","volume":"39","author":"Tan","year":"2023","journal-title":"Dent Traumatol"},{"key":"B10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"77","DOI":"10.1038\/s41432-024-01002-w","article-title":"Dental autotransplantation: a viable solution for preserving oral health and function","volume":"25","author":"Mourao","year":"2024","journal-title":"Evid Based Dent"},{"key":"B11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"85","DOI":"10.1111\/adj.12757","article-title":"Posterior tooth autotransplantation: a case series","volume":"66","author":"Ong","year":"2021","journal-title":"Aust Dent J"},{"key":"B12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e75","DOI":"10.4317\/jced.57066","article-title":"Third molar autotransplant planning with a tooth replica.
