INTRODUCTION One of the common findings encountered by the clinician at the end of orthodontic treatment is the apical root resorption. Root resorption occurs to various degrees. A severe form of root resorption is characterized by shortening of root for more than 4 mm or more than one-third of the total tooth length. A low incidence rate of resorption is observed based on radiographic findings...

Root resorption (RR) is one of the most common sequelae of orthodontic treatment. A key role for a genetic influence in external apical root resorption (EARR) was described recently, by describing both linkage and linkage disequilibrium between interleukin-1B (IL-1B) and EARR in orthodontically treated individuals, accounting for approximately 15% of the variation in EARR. The murine model, whi...

Root resorption is loss of dental hard tissue as a result of clastic activities. The dental hard tissue of permanent teeth does not normally undergo resorption, except in cases of inflammation or trauma. However, there are rare cases of tooth resorption of an unknown cause, known as "idiopathic root resorption." This report would discuss a rare case of multiple idiopathic resorption in the perm...

Background: Resorption of the external apical root is a common iatrogenic side effect orthodontic therapy (EARR). The loss cementum and dentine caused by resorption, which can be normal or pathologic process. A complicated combination individual biology mechanical forces assumed to cause. Aims &Objectives: purpose this research was assess degree resorption (EARR) in patients treated with Da...
