background: the aim of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that budesonide increases the susceptibility of teeth to root resorption during the course of orthodontic treatment. materials and methods: a randomized controlled trial design (animal study) was employed. budesonide was administered in test group for 14 days during which orthodontic force was applied to upper right molar. afterwa...

The purpose of the study was to compare the incidence and severity of apical root resorption in patients treated with different orthodontic appliances and to evaluate the effect of treatment duration on the degree of apical root resorption. A further aim was to analyse the degree of apical root resorption in different tooth groups in patients presenting with root resorption. The sample consiste...

ABSTRACT Objective: Compare the accuracy of early diagnosis simulated internal root resorptions and external resorption, using digital periapical radiography cone beam computed tomography. Methods: Root resorption were in extracted human teeth by demineralization with 5% nitric acid solution 8% Sodium Hypochlorite different periods (1 5 days). For group (n=12) composite resin cylinders position...

Management of internal root resorption is a challenge to the endodontists. If it is left untreated, it may lead to the destruction of the surrounding dental hard tissues. Despite, routine obturation techniques are often employed without considering the best technique to solve this problem. This study presented a case of internal root resorption and apical periodontitis affecting tooth 12 (FDI) ...

The purpose of the current study was to evaluate noise reduction effect on apical root resorption evaluation in digital radiography. In the present experimental study, 60 extracted lower premolars with sound roots were used. The teeth were fixed in a dry human mandible for radiographic evaluation. Digital radiographs were taken before and after artificial external root resorption on the mesial ...

BACKGROUND Diagnosis of external root resorption (ERR) cavities may be challenging, especially when no clinical signs are seen. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of conventional intraoral film radiography, charge-coupled device (CCD) detector, photostimulable phosphor plate (PSP) detector, and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for the detection of ERR. METHODS Th...

conclusion considering the similar diagnostic efficacy of all voxel sizes, 300 µm voxel size can be used with adequate efficacy for detection of external root resorption defects with minimal patient radiation dose and the shortest scanning time. background selecting a voxel size that yields minimal radiation dose with no significant compromise of the diagnostic accuracy of cone beam computed to...

internal resorption is rare in permanent teeth. treatment is usually performed through warm gutta-percha technique. if the resorptive process perforates the root, treatment may be more difficult and is usually performed via surgical approach. non-surgical repair of a perforating internal root resorption with mta was conducted in this case. before repairing the resorption, a master gutta-percha ...
