Abstract: Autogenous dental transplantation, or autotransplantation, is a technique that gained recognition

in the 18th century and involves the transfer of a tooth from one socket to another in the same individual.

This practice can be performed with embedded, impacted, or erupted teeth to replace lost or non-restorable

teeth, offering a biological alternative that preserves natural teeth. The process of autotransplantation in-

volves steps such as radiographic evaluation, atraumatic extraction, root inspection, extraoral management,

and transfer of the tooth to the recipient socket, all carefully followed to ensure clinical success. Currently,

of tooth 38 as a donor, atraumatic extractions of elements 37 and 38 were performed, followed by the auto-

transplantation of tooth 38 into the socket of tooth 37. The procedure was carried out without scraping or

curettage of the recipient bed and without the use of pre-surgical antibiotic therapy. The patient was evalu-

ated after 15 days, 45 days, and 6 months, showing a satisfactory evolution with a response within normal

standards for pulp and periodontal health. This work highlights the importance of autotransplantation as an

option for dental rehabilitation, especially in contexts where access to endodontic and prosthetic treatments

is limited and emphasizes the need for greater dissemination and training for oral health professionals.
