The enamel matrix derivative (EMD, Emdogain) was used for the purpose to obtain the periodontal regeneration on the denuded root-surfaces of the donor teeth in two cases of the immediate tooth-transplantation. The root-surfaces at the cervical portion of the teeth were denuded because of extrusion. The healthy periodontium of each tooth remained at the apical portion of the roots. The denuded root-surfaces were cleansed before extraction. Then, the donor teeth were gently extracted with forceps, administered EMD, and transplanted so that the denuded surfaces were covered by gingival flaps. After the transplantation, the mean probing attachment level (PAL) improved 3.2 mm and 1.5 mm, respectively. The mean probing pocket depth was within normal level. The actual supporting areas of the roots of the transplanted teeth increased and the teeth worked as the abutments of prosthetic bridges.
