reimplanted

Put back in

Reimplanted is the past tense of reimplant, meaning to implant again—typically a tooth, organ, or tissue that was removed and then surgically restored to its original location: The dentist reimplanted the knocked-out tooth within an hour.

The term appears most often in medical contexts involving transplantation or dental trauma.
