External invasive resorption is an uncommon but aggressive type of external resorption. This report outlines the management of an advanced case of external invasive resorption with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). The clinical and radiographic follow-up after 60 months revealed a functional tooth with a stable periodontal condition and no evidence of any further resorption. (J Oral Sci 53, 397...

INTRODUCTION Current information suggests that the major variation in orthodontic root resorption can be explained by differences in individual predisposition. Our aim was therefore to test the predictive value of the amount of maxillary incisor resorption about 6 and 12 months after bracket placement for the resorption at appliance removal. METHODS We measured tooth length of the maxillary i...

Most previous studies have ascribed variations in the resorption of a certain plant nutrient to its corresponding environmental availability or level in tissues, regardless of the other nutrients' status. However, given that plant growth relies on both sufficient and balanced nutrient supply, the nutrient resorption process should not only be related to the absolute nutrient status, but also be...

Introduction In addition to periodontal disease and chronic gingivostomatitis, tooth resorption (previously termed feline odontoclastic resorptive lesions, FORL) are among the most common and frustrating diagnostic findings in feline dentistry. Reported prevalence rates of tooth resorption range from about 30 to 70 %, depending on the composition of the population examined and on the diagnostic...

This retrospective study evaluated the frequency of development of root resorption in dental trauma cases involving supporting tissue. For 249 traumatized teeth of 125 patients aged between 7 and 51 years, we collected data on the gender and age of the patient, the teeth involved, the type of trauma, and the period between dental injury and initial examination. Radiographic parameters examined ...
