摘      要：BACKGROUND The history of allogenic tooth transplantation can be traced back to the 16th *** there have been many successful cases,much needs to be better understood and researched prior to the technique being translated to everyday clinical *** SUMMARY In the present report,we describe a case of allogenic tooth transplantation between a mother and her *** first left maxillary molar of the mother was diagnosed with residual root resorption and needed to be *** 3rd molar of the daughter was used as a donor *** to transplantation,a 3D printing system was introduced to fabricate an individualized reamer drill specifically designed utilizing the donor’s tooth as a *** specific design of our 3D printed bur allowed for the recipient site to better match the donor *** the ability to 3D print in layers,even the protuberance of the root can be matched and 3D printed,thereby minimizing unnecessary bone *** Our study is a pioneering case combining 3D printing with allogenic tooth transplantation,which could be able to minimize unnecessary bone loss and improve the implant *** article aims to enhance our understanding of allogenic tooth transplantation and 3D printing,and may potentially lead to tooth transplantation being utilized more frequently - especially since transplantations are so commonly utilized in many other fields of medicine with high success rates.
