Abstract
Orthodontic movement, as documented in this study, can be accomplished successfully in the case of completely avulsed and partially avulsed teeth which have been reimplanted. These teeth respond to normal orthodontic forces and duration of treatment time by conventional orthodontic techniques and retention. Apical root resorption does occur more readily in these teeth before, during, and after orthodontic treatment. Six of the eighty-one involved teeth were lost because of complete root dissolution. The involved teeth which were reimplanted immediately without pulpal treatment and their integrity protected as living tissue were successfully treated orthodontically with no known losses as of this writing. It will be interesting to observe the tissue response of these avulsed teeth in the years ahead. How will time and circumstances deal with these teeth?
