What was once considered a procedure of last resort can now be included into one’s everyday treatment planning. In describing the new techniques versus the way replantations used to be performed, the goal of the lecture is for everyone to become confident doing this procedure. The importance of proper case selection will be discussed along with a step-by-step technique, offering tips to success. There will be many clinical cases shown, proving this to be a predictable procedure. Saving our patient’s natural teeth should still be the goal of any dentist/endodontist.

Learning Objectives:

Explain proper case selection and treatment planning
Describe techniques and instruments to remove teeth without fracturing
Discuss the success rates and benefits of retaining natural teeth
