Abstract
Sterilisation of teeth for homogenous transplantation has been successfully achieved by combined ultrasonic waves and immersion in 6 per cent hydrogen peroxide. This combined treatment was found to have no harmful effect on the tooth integrity as indicated by enamel solubility, hardness, root canal seal and tooth size and weight. It is suggested the method offers the possibility of storing teeth in a "tooth bank".Entities:
