Pre-Eruptive Intracronal Resorbtion at Unerupted Three Molar Teeth: A Case Report

Pre-Eruptive Intracronal Radiolucency (PEIR) is seen as a radiolucent anomaly at coronal dentin of unerupted teeth. PEIR is often confused because of similarities with dental caries. Pre-eruptive intracoronal resorptions are typically observed as radiolucency in dentin tissue, and the lesions are close to the enamel dentin junction. Lesions are often coincidentally noticed on the radiographs of...

Pre-eruptive intracoronal resorption as an entity of occult caries.

"Occult" or "hidden" caries refers to occlusal caries which is not diagnosed clinically because the occlusal surface appears ostensibly intact, and radiographs show radiolucencies in dentin. The prevalence of occult caries has been reported to range from 2.2% to over 50% of permanent molars. In spite of its relatively high prevalence, the etiology and pathogenesis of occult caries remain unclea...

Pre-eruptive coronal resorption of permanent teeth: report of three cases and their treatments.

Intracoronal radiolucencies in unerupted permanent teeth had been described previously as caries, carieslike lesions," and developmental in origin.More recent reports describe these lesions as resorption of the crown of unerupted permanent teeth' found as an incidental radiographic finding, rarely in more than one tooth in the same patient.-' These often go unnoticed until eruption and then are...

The prevalence of pre-eruptive dentin radiolucencies in the permanent dentition.

PURPOSE Although intracoronal radiolucencies in radiographs of unerupted teeth have been reported for several decades, the prevalence of this condition remains unknown. This study determined the prevalence and associated dental conditions of permanent teeth showing pre-eruptive dentin radiolucencies in bite-wing radiographs of school children attending two school dental therapy training centers...
