[Reimplantation of 83 teeth].

A total of 83 teeth were reimplanted after extraction and treatment of periapical or pulpoperiodontal lesions in 79 patients, age range 9 to 55 years. Only anterior teeth were immobilized by ligature and self-polymerizable resin. Follow up of from 1 to 5 years showed complete success in 69% clinical success but with root lysis in 11%, as shown by radiologic imaging, and failure of treatment, mainly in patients over 40 years, in 20%. Healing was usually by ankylosis but an alveolodental new ligament formation was noted in only 3 cases. Root lysis occurred in 28% of cases, including 1/3 rd of the compensated type with a very slow course and 2/3 rds of the inflammatory type with resulting failure of treatment.
