Autotransplantation Balham

Consider this treatment for:

• Underdeveloped or missing teeth
• Dental trauma
• Cracked or broken teeth
• Root resorption
• Impacted teeth
• Tooth loss from accidents

A bone graft may be necessary for successful transplantation if there is insufficient bone support.

Before proceeding, a clinical and radiographic study is required to evaluate the transplantation procedure’s outcome, healing, and success rates.

Tooth transplantation is a specialist procedure. Cost varies, and we recommend visiting our Balham clinic for a consultation to discuss a personalised treatment plan and pricing. In complex cases, the need for root canal treatment may add to the overall cost. Our clinical follow-up studies show high success rates for auto-transplanted teeth.

Tooth transplantation is suitable for patients under 21, especially those who have experienced dental trauma, unlike dental implants, which are typically recommended for those over 21. The procedure can also be applied to older patients, often in conjunction with orthodontic treatments, to address root resorption or a missing tooth in specific clinical cases.

Local anaesthesia is usually sufficient, but sedation options are available if needed. Our dentists will discuss the best option for each patient to make you comfortable during the tooth extraction and transplantation process.

Good oral health is necessary for successful transplantation, healthy gums and sufficient jawbone structure. We use advanced technology to plan and execute the procedure to enhance bone regeneration and minimise surgical trauma.

You get natural tooth function, preservation of jawbone structure and better oral health. If transplantation fails, the site is often suitable for implant placement and benefits from better bone density and wound healing.

At our Balham clinic, we have expertise in auto-transplantation to deliver great results and improve the aesthetics and function of our patient’s smiles. We ensure optimal results for all auto-transplantation cases using the latest techniques and clinical and radiographic studies.

Molars are commonly transplanted, but other teeth can also be transplanted. Visit our clinic to discuss the options, including upper third molars or other suitable donor teeth.

Tooth transplantation is very effective and can prevent more invasive procedures like implants. Our team will manage the treatment process, from root surface preparation to soft tissue and bone healing.

Having a healthy donor tooth that fits well in the recipient site is crucial. Recent technological advances make these procedures more successful by ensuring precise matching and minimally invasive extractions, promoting pulp healing and bone formation.

Although very successful, tooth transplantation can have complications like any medical procedure. Our team in Balham can manage any issues, from tooth mobility to periodontal healing.
