Background: Resorption of the external apical root is a common iatrogenic side effect orthodontic therapy (EARR). The loss cementum and dentine caused by resorption, which can be normal or pathologic process. A complicated combination individual biology mechanical forces assumed to cause. Aims &Objectives: purpose this research was assess degree resorption (EARR) in patients treated with Da...

Background: Accurate and early diagnosis of internal root resorption is essential for determining the outcome treatment prognosis. Several digital processing algorithms have been introduced resorption. The aim present study was to evaluate effect gamma values in detection cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. Methods: A total 45 healthy extracted single-rooted teeth were selected study. ...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to determine the type and frequency of pathological conditions around third molar teeth among randomly selected patient's records in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, College of Dentistry, King Saud University, Riyadh. MATERIALS AND METHODS Totally, 281 patient panoramic radiographs were selected with detectable pathology among 570 files of patients seen ...

Proper apical airway surface hydration is essential to maintain lung function. This hydration depends on well-balanced water resorption and secretion. The mechanisms involved in resorption are still a matter of debate, especially as the measurement of transepithelial water transport remains challenging. In this study, we combined classical short circuit current (I SC) measurements with a novel ...

Invasive cervical resorption (ICR) is an uncommon phenomenon (0.1%), however, it represents a challenge to the structural and functional integrity of dentogingival junction, as well risk for survival affected tooth. They are characterized by their location invasive character, being able appear in any tooth permanent dentition. It shows up after damage insertion apparatus, leaving pulp without p...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM One of the major outcomes of orthodontic treatment is the apical root resorption of teeth moved during the treatment. Identifying the possible risk factors, are necessary for every orthodontist. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to compare the rate of apical root resorption after fixed orthodontic treatment with standard edgewise and straight wire (MBT) method, and also t...

background: the aim of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that budesonide increases the susceptibility of teeth to root resorption during the course of orthodontic treatment. materials and methods: a randomized controlled trial design (animal study) was employed. budesonide was administered in test group for 14 days during which orthodontic force was applied to upper right molar. afterwa...
