Introduction: Root resorption, generally expressed in a round apical shape, is one of the most common findings in the orthodontic clinic. Objective: To radiographically evaluate whether vital and endodontically treated teeth present similar severity of apical root resorption in response to orthodontic treatment. Methods: This study was conducted with twenty-eight patients who had one upper cent...

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic value of cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) and periapical (pa) radiography in detecting internal root resorption. methods and materials: eighty single rooted human teeth with visible pulps in pa radiography were split mesiodistally along the coronal plane. internal resorption like lesions were created in three areas (cervical,...

a 20-year-old man presented with the history of pain and swelling in the anterior maxillary segment. the periapical radiography was indicative of a dental anomaly in right maxillary lateral incisor. due to the insufficient information from conventional radiography, cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) was ordered. cbct showed apical root resorption, large apical lucency and two separate canals ...

OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the frequency of root resorption during the orthodontic treatment with Herbst appliance by Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). MATERIAL AND METHODS The sample comprised 23 patients (11 men, 12 women; mean ages 15.76±1.75 years) with Class II division 1 malocclusion, treated with Herbst appliance. CBCT was obtained before treatment (T0) and after Herbst treatme...

AIM To determine the presence of various periapical pathologies and their association with the presence and extent of internal apical inflammatory root resorption in human teeth. METHODOLOGY A total of 75 root apices from extracted teeth with periapical lesions were examined. Semi-serial sections of soft tissue lesions were stained with HE. The lesions were classified as non-cystic or cystic,...

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 ...

abstract: apexification with calcium hydroxide is associated with certain difficulties, such as longer treatment time, risk of tooth fracture and incomplete calcification of apical bridge. mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) is an alternative material that can be used for apexification of open apices due to its biocompatibility, non-mutagenicity, non-neurotoxicity, regenerative abilities, and good...

The purpose of this study was to examine the apical foramen of root apices extracted during apicotomies. A total of 25 teeth extracted from 25 patients admitted to the Department of Conservative Dentistry at Tokyo Dental College's Chiba Hospital were used for the study. All patients were between 22 to 56 years of age at the time of the study, and each of the 25 cases was determined clinically o...
