The tooth was extracted and placed in the recipient prepared socket and stabilized with wire splint. The patients followed up clinically and radiographically for two years.Results: At the end of this period, (12) cases showed that the clinical tooth mobility was similar to that of the adjacent teeth, radiographically showed normal lamina dura and periodontal ligament space, and two cases showed inflammatory resorption with widening of the periodontal space and tooth mobility.Conclusion: Autotransplantation is a useful alternative treatment which should be considered as a viable option for treatment of impacted and partially erupted canines.Key words: Autogenous, Canine, transplantation.
