A properly performed tooth replantation can last a very long time.

Textbooks published in Japan are full of case examples of replanted teeth that have been functioning well for 20 or 30 years.

Among the concerns you may have about tooth replantation,

I know many people want to know what the success rate is and how long the tooth will last.

What I want to share in this post is

that the success rate of replantation is nearly 100%.

The most frustrating situations patients encounter during replantation are:

1. A tooth fractures during the replantation treatment,

and the replantation fails before the treatment can even be carried out.

2. Showing the extracted tooth and saying,

'See this here, right?'

'This is why this tooth can't be saved.'

'As you can see, it can't be done, so we'll have to throw the tooth away.'

These are the two cases.

I can say this with confidence.

In my practice, I never run into a situation where I can't treat a tooth I've decided to replant,

or where I'm unable to put that tooth back in place.

I always extract a tooth I've decided to save safely,

resolve all the problems, and then reposition it.

That's why

I can say that the success rate of replantation is 100%.

Once a treatment has been planned,

I never abandon it partway through,

and I always complete the treatment as planned.

Therefore,

you can consider the success rate of the replantation procedures I perform to be 100%.

The next issue is the lifespan of the tooth.

While there are parts of this that I can address myself,

above all,

when treatment has been delayed for a long time

and I'm trying to save a tooth that is literally falling apart,

what I truly want to ask is this:

if you want to save your tooth and use it for a long time,

please stop pointless, meaningless treatments right away

and come to see us quickly to save it.

The tooth's lifespan will naturally be good.

However, for people who have trouble making up their minds,

not only do ineffective treatments provide no benefit,

but they also keep damaging the tooth the more treatment they receive.

After going through all of that, it is really not easy to expect the best possible result when they finally come in.

I'm confident in the treatment itself.

However, the condition of the tooth is extremely important for achieving the best results.

As long as you don't delay treatment and come in on time,

we can definitely save the tooth,

and you can use it for a long time.

How long can a replanted tooth usually last?

How does missing the treatment window affect the condition of a tooth?

According to the post, if treatment is delayed significantly, the condition of the tooth may deteriorate, making it difficult to achieve the best results. The director explains that as long as patients come in without significant delay, the tooth can be saved, and advises stopping ineffective treatments and seeking consultation promptly.

In what situations does replantation treatment fail?

The post cites, as a typical example, a case in which a tooth fractures during treatment, so the replantation fails before the treatment can even begin. It also describes situations in which patients are shown an extracted tooth and told it cannot be saved, which it identifies as among the most common experiences patients have.
