Among a variety of biomaterials that have been reported to be ideal for dental repair, calcium hydroxide has been shown to have excellent long-term biocompatibility in the pulp and periapical areas. Here we report an alternative method employing calcium hydroxide for periapical surgery in a patient who developed internal apical resorption after traumatic injury, which negatively affected the qu...

UNLABELLED THE MAIN OBJECTIVE of the study was to determine the extent of external apical root resorption at the end of orthodontic treatment and to identify the possible pre-treatment and treatment factors that would allow to predict the possible incidence of root resorption before the start of treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS Panoramic radiographs of 75 patients that had been treated with fu...

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...

resorption of tooth structures can occur as a result of physiological, pathological, and idiopathic factors. early diagnosis and appropriate treatment can prevent its serious complications. this case report presents surgical endodontic management of a trauma-induced perforating external root resorption, which was diagnosed with the help of cone beam computed tomography. following root canal tre...

Multiple internal root resorption is a rare outcome of chronic irreversible pulpitis. In some cases, a chronic apical periodontitis can be later on associated. Usually, the conventional intraoral radiograph is mandatory in diagnosis but only CBCT proved to detect the true location, shape and size of resorptive defect and, if present, a perforation generated by resorption extension through the c...

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...
