Paediatric dental patients demand special care and wider vision while treatment planning due to ongoing growth of jaw
bones and existing permanent tooth buds within the bone. Tooth loss is very common even in younger age patients due to
extensive tooth decay or as a result of traumatic dental injuries. Implants are in high demand to restore the lost tooth but use of implants is limited to
adults or older age group. Thus auto-transplantation may be an intermediate or permanent treatment option to such cases due simple, less time
consuming and cost effectiveness. Sidewise auto-transplantation maintains the bone dimensions to make it available further treatment on failure.
Present review article include all the required facts about auto-transplantion.
