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...

introduction: the aim of this innovative study was to regenerate a condition that makes it possible to carry out researches in the field on a variety of resorption. materials and methods: in order to develop apical resorption, the root canals of selected teeth were instrumented and then drilled with #4 gates glidden drills. in the next stage, the teeth were submerged in melted rose wax up to 3 ...

The importance of the role played by bacteria in the pathogenesis of pulpal and apical disease has been established. One of the characteristics of apical periodontitis is apical bone resorption, which is due to apical immune response to bacterial infection. Recently, novel bacterial complex lipid called phosphorylated dihydroceramides has been discovered to be of inflammatory activators. The ba...

Root resorption is a common squeal of traumatic injury to the dentition. Its progression can be minimized by early diagnosis and appropriate treatment. This case report presents the diagnosis and management of a case of trauma induced trio of apical root resorption, intraradicular root resorption and infrabony defect in maxillary central incisor. The main aim in treating such cases of resorptio...

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the presence and extension of cementum and dentin resorption in apexes containing different periapical pathosis. Material and method: 31 teeth were selected for the presence of a proliferative tissue compatible with a periapical pathology. Sections were conducted in periapical lesions which were then dyed by the HE. The periapical pathosis were cl...

This study was conducted to investigate the nature of root resorption resulting from intrusive forces applied to the rat lower molars, by means of histological and histochemical techniques with tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP). Thirty-eight 13-week-old Wistar strain male rats were used. Intrusive force was created by a fixed appliance which was adjusted to exert an initial force of 50...

Introduction: Periapical infection of primary molars affects the development permanent teeth (premolars). Therefore, present study was conducted to test null hypothesis in children aged 4-10 years with chronic apical periodontitis (CAP) molars. Materials and methods: A retrospective, cross-sectional on 185 panoramic radiographs healthy CAP total 256 infected (144 females, 112 males) were analyz...
