Dental root resorption etiology, diagnosis and treatment

Internal resorption, a rare phenomenon, has been a quandary from the standpoints of both its diagnosis and treatment. It is usually asymptomatic and discovered by chance on routine radiographic examinations or by a classic clinical sign, “pink spot” in the crown. This paper emphasizes the etiology and pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in internal root resorption. Prognosis is good for smaller lesions; however, for those with extensive resorption associated with perforation the tooth structure is greatly weakened and the prognosis remains poor.

External Root Resorption

ABSTRACT External root resorption is a lytic process occurring in the cementum or cementum and dentin of the roots of teeth. It is frequently caused by trauma. Such cases are often difficult to diagnose especially if lesion is on buccal or lingual side, and at times may be difficult to treat using conventional root canal treatment, with extraction being left the only alternative. This article describes the diagnosis and treatment of a case of inflammatory resorption of palatal wall of palatal root of maxillary left first molar by intentional reimplantation. The provisional diagnosis was made from clinical and radiographic observations. The treatment consisted of intentional reimplantation. After extraction it was found that palatal wall of palatal root had been resorbed from furcation till apex. After the resection of the palatal root at the point of resorption, tooth was obturated, reimplanted and splinted. This tooth is serving well since 5 years.

Reliable Diagnosis

External cervical resorption of the root of the tooth, is asymptomatic and has no characteristic morphological manifestations, to make a reliable diagnosis in most cases is impossible. External inflammatory root resorption is one of the most destructive and aggressive types of pathology. The analysis of domestic and foreign literature and publications. This article highlights the main etiological factors and pathogenesis mechanisms of external resorption of the root. Both local and systemic etiological factors can lead to the development of root resorption. Allocate superficial, inflammatory and replacement external resorption. The modern approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of this disease are considered.
