Autotransplantation of Impacted Third Molars to DCIA Free Flap in Adolescent Patient: A Case Report

This case of an impacted third molar autotransplantation to a DCIA free flap in an adolescent patient after a non-malignant mandibular tumor resection and reconstruction demonstrates promising results. The application of 3D printing technology significantly enhances the feasibility of dental transplantation in challenging cases, particularly for suboptimal donor teeth such as impacted wisdom teeth, by enabling precise surgical planning and optimized recipient site preparation while also reducing damage to the grafted teeth during transplantation. Further research is needed to assess the role of tooth autotransplantation in bony free flaps.
