Autotransplantation of teeth has been performed for decades, but its popularity has varied over the years due to unpredictable results. However, with recent advancements in technology and better biological understanding, ATT has become more predictable. Yet, many clinicians are still not confident about this technique, in part due to the lack of studies on the long-term outcomes of these cases. I have performed more than 1,000 ATT since 1984 in general private practice. Almost all of the cases were carefully recorded with photographs and radiographs in a standardized manner and many were followed long-term. In my presentation, I would like to discuss the wound healing, techniques for success, indications in posterior and anterior regions and factors to control prognosis. Intentional replantation and surgical extrusion will be discussed if time permits.
