the aim of this case report was to present a case of multiple idiopathic apical root resorption which is a rare condition in a 17-year-old adult male. external root resorption of the permanent teeth is a multifactorial process. well-recognized causes of apical root resorption in permanent teeth include orthodontic therapy, trauma, periapical or periodontal inflammation, tumors, cysts, occlusal ...

Objectives Root resorption is a dangerous side effect in orthodontics, and maxillary incisors are at the highest risk for root resorption. It is important to understand optimal force considerations for patients with altered root lengths.The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of root length on stress distribution on roots by means of three dimensional fi...

Management of internal root resorption is a challenge to the endodontists. If it is left untreated, it may lead to the destruction of the surrounding dental hard tissues. Despite, routine obturation techniques are often employed without considering the best technique to solve this problem. This study presented a case of internal root resorption and apical periodontitis affecting tooth 12 (FDI) ...

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...

This case report describes an external apical root resorption resulted from the unusual root morphology of the neighbouring tooth. A 28-year-old female was referred to the department of endodontics with a complaint of intense pain in her maxillary second premolar tooth. The clinical and radiographical evaluation revealed an external apical resorption in the mesial root of the maxillary first mo...

The purpose of the study was to compare the incidence and severity of apical root resorption in patients treated with different orthodontic appliances and to evaluate the effect of treatment duration on the degree of apical root resorption. A further aim was to analyse the degree of apical root resorption in different tooth groups in patients presenting with root resorption. The sample consiste...
