N2 - MATERIAL AND METHODS: The aim of this study was to assess the effects of atrophy of the alveolar process and subsequent orthodontic treatment on the transplantation results of developing third molars. The material consisted of 35 teeth transplanted to an atrophied alveolar process. 19 of these teeth were treated orthodontically subsequent to transplantation. The control group consisted of 61 developing molars transplanted to a new extraction socket. The transplanted teeth were followed up clinically and radiographically for a mean period of 3.2 years. RESULTS: The success rate was 85% for transplants to new extraction sockets and 84% for transplants to atrophied jaw sections with subsequent orthodontic treatment. In contrast, transplants to atrophied jaw sections without subsequent orthodontic treatment showed a significantly (p <or = 0.001) lower success rate of only 37.5%. These poorer results were due to persistent infraocclusion and ankylosis. CONCLUSIONS: Even in cases with atrophy of the alveolar process, a transplantation with subsequent orthodontic treatment represents a promising treatment concept, whereas teeth without subsequent orthodontic treatment showed a lower success rate. Orthodontic tooth movement had no negative effect on the healing rates of transplanted developing third molars.
