Abstract
A method for transplanting human or animal teeth while eliminating the risk of ankylosis and root resorption. This method involves stimulating the periodontal ligament prior to transplanting the teeth by causing surgical trauma to the periodontal ligament by mobilization of the teeth (extraction and immediate replantation) and retaining them in a mobilized position to cause mechanical stimulation.
