Abstract
A case of successful intentional replantation has been described. Endodontic therapy was performed on a mandibular second molar and subsequently failed. Although we believed that extraction was the preferred treatment because of the location of the tooth, an intentional replantation was attempted as a last effort to retain the tooth. The technique, philosophy, and observations were discussed. A seven-year series of follow-up radiographic and clinical findings trace the success of this case.
