External inflammatory root resorption (EIR) represents a challenge in endodontic practice. EIR commonly occurs after dental trauma that results in periodontal ligament injury, pulp necrosis and subsequent infection.  Treatment of EIR is based on disinfecting the root canal system through chemomechanical procedures and then filling it with calcium hydroxide or triple antibiotic paste. Dental tra...

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...

The use of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) for complete endodontic obturation of an immature maxillary central incisor is reported. The injured tooth of a 9-year-old male was avulsed secondary to a sports-related traumatic event. Early attempts at pulpal revascularization of the replanted tooth proved unsuccessful, as evidenced by radiographic signs of external inflammatory root resorption in ...

Apical root resorption, which is characterised as a biological or abnormal phenomenon that shortens the length of apex, additional typical iatrogenic impact orthodontic tooth movement may jeopardise effectiveness treatment and lifespan. The main goals current retrospective investigation were to assess dimensions alveolar bone alterations come along with look into frequency extent resorption in ...
