[The Reality of Tooth Regeneration] Wisdom Tooth Transplant You Can Get Right Now #Replantation #WisdomToothTransplant #ToothTransplant

There is no dentist who doesn't know treatments that save teeth.

These are all things we learned back in dental school,

and especially when you look at wisdom tooth transplantation with a pure, unjaded heart(?),

it is a truly amazing dental treatment that makes your heart race.

If you've ever felt that chest-swelling sense of awe,

wisdom tooth transplantation becomes a treatment you really want to try.

Simply put, in Japan wisdom tooth transplantation is already a completely routine treatment,

but in Korea people still ask, 'Does this even work?' and then that damn 'it won't last long' line comes up,

and I find it unfortunate that it steers you into the world of implants.

Let me summarize.

Keep your teeth in use for as long as possible without root canal treatment or crowns.

When unavoidable, do root canal treatment, and even then avoid crowns whenever possible.

Save the tooth with replantation.

If that still doesn't work, consider wisdom tooth transplantation.

Implants come at the very end.

Only by managing a tooth's life this way can you keep your teeth in use for a long time.

This isn't someone else's story; it's about you, the person reading this post.

People get crowns because they seem sturdy, but crowns have the drawback of breaking.

This isn't because the crown was done wrong; it's an inherent limitation of crowns.

So if you can avoid them, I'd recommend doing so.

If you can keep your natural teeth, I hope you keep them and use them carefully.

I think that's enough for you to understand,

and I've noticed on YouTube lately that tooth regeneration is a topic people use to grab attention and boost views.

Of course, if it becomes commercially available, that's great. It really is good.

But for it to be done repeatedly at a dental clinic near you, it will take a long time,

and the cost will be beyond what you imagine.

This is a completely different level of story from tearing down an apartment building and building a new one.

All of that is fine, but before that,

I hope you'll focus on saving the teeth you already have and using them for a long time.

You already have the bluebird of happiness,

so isn't it a bit much to wander all over the world searching for it?

I often find it frustrating to watch people overlook the solution already in their own bodies and wander around searching elsewhere.

A woman in her 30s, due to excessive dental treatment plus poor-quality dental treatment,

unfortunately had her lower first molar extracted.

The tooth had decayed so much inside the crown that it could not be saved at all,

but heaven must have been on my side: the wisdom tooth at the back had a very good shape and fit perfectly,

making it a very satisfying case.

The introduction got a bit long, but the photos alone should make it clear,

and if it still isn't, keep looking at the photos.

It's unfortunate, but this is how it looks after extraction because the tooth could not be saved.

What would be the best thing to put here?

If you have a leftover wisdom tooth, putting it in makes it a tooth-for-tooth replacement,

and that is exactly what tooth regeneration is.

Some people argue over whether wisdom tooth transplantation works or not,

even though Japan finished researching this treatment 20 years ago, and in 2025 South Korea is still asking whether it works,

which is truly disappointing and only makes my typing fingers ache.

Every treatment has pros, cons, and side effects.

Even though implants are not an eternal, everlasting treatment,

when I see people who worship implants like a religion, believing they solve every problem and last a thousand years without any issues,

I have to admire that. (That's not to say implants are wrong!)

An orthopedic professor I know

told me that even artificial joints placed inside the body make them uneasy and cause side effects after more than five years,

but dental implants are exposed outside the body, so they are inevitably vulnerable to bacterial infection,

and I heard them say they couldn't understand what gives dentists such confidence.

Wisdom tooth transplantation is also not a treatment that always succeeds.

It has limitations, and you can't have it just because you want it.

That said, when a tooth has unfortunately had to be extracted and a suitable wisdom tooth is available,

shouldn't tooth regeneration using that wisdom tooth be the first option?

That's what I believe.

As I always say, it's not tooth preservation vs. implants!

Implants are fine after you've tried to save the tooth and exhausted every option you have,

but the current reality, which treats teeth like outcasts to be pulled out, is truly disheartening.

No one knows how long a tooth will last, which is why I save teeth whenever there's a chance to.

I've introduced the most realistic form of tooth regeneration treatment.

That's all.

In Korea, implants are the standard treatment.

Saving a tooth without root canal treatment is not an easy or simple procedure.

Also, once a tooth passes a certain point, it can no longer be saved.

Cases of multiple tooth loss or multiple loose teeth make the tooth-saving treatment I do difficult.

I recommend watching my blog and YouTube thoroughly and checking whether you fall into any of these categories.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is wisdom tooth transplantation?

This involves placing a leftover wisdom tooth into the socket of an extracted tooth; the article refers to this as a tooth regeneration procedure. It is presented as a treatment to consider first when a suitable wisdom tooth is available, but it does not apply to every case.

Does wisdom tooth transplantation always succeed?

No, it is not a treatment that always succeeds. The article explains that it has limitations and is not something everyone can receive.

How are wisdom tooth transplantation and implants related?

The article explains that they are not an either-or choice. It suggests first considering treatments that preserve the natural tooth as much as possible, and if that is difficult, considering wisdom tooth transplantation and then implants, in that order. It adds that this does not mean implants are the wrong treatment.

When is it difficult to save a tooth?

The article states that in cases of multiple tooth loss or multiple loose teeth, the author's tooth-saving treatment is difficult. It also mentions that a tooth cannot be saved once it passes a certain point, and says that saving a tooth without root canal treatment is not an easy treatment either.

What are the drawbacks of dental crowns?

The article points out that crowns can break. It explains that this is not because the crown was done wrong, but an inherent limitation of crowns. For that reason, it says it is best to avoid crowns where possible, keep the natural tooth, and use it carefully.
