Abstract

In a fifteen-year-old girl, bilaterally impacted permanent maxillary canines were established. A difficult palatinal placement and an apical deviation were found in both teeth. Surgical exposure of the canines, followed by orthodontic traction was not desirable. Both remaining primary canines showed signs of resorption. Autogenous transplantation of the maxillary canines was the treatment chosen.

Bij een 15-jarig meisje werden bilateraal geïmpacteerde blijvende cuspidaten in de bovenkaak vastgesteld. Van beide gebitselementen was sprake van een moeilijk palatinale ligging en apicale deviatie. Chirurgische vrijlegging van de cuspidaten, gevolgd door een orthodontische extrusie, was niet gewenst. Beide nog aanwezige melkcuspidaten vertoonden tekenen van wortelresorptie. Er werd gekozen voor een bilaterale autologe cuspidaattransplantatie.
