Overview

Case report describes a new technique using Young Tongue Holding Forceps for effective autotransplantation of a third molar, suggesting potential benefits for periodontal ligament retention.

Key Points

  • Autotransplantation led to optimal healing and maturation of periodontal tissues in the donor tooth.
  • Postoperative evaluation at 12 months showed significant improvement and no signs of complications.
  • Surgical steps emphasized the preservation of the periodontal ligament, enhancing the transplantation outcome.
  • Young Tongue Holding Forceps may be adapted for other dental procedures involving ex vivo handling of teeth.
