internal inflammatory root resorption (iirr) is a rare condition of the root canal and if it is left untreated it may lead to destruction of the surrounding dental hard tissues. odontoclasts are responsible for this situation which can potentially perforate the root. many initiating factors have been mentioned for iirr, almost all causing chronic inflammation in the vital pulp. iirr is usually ...

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) ...

for management of a symptomatic maxillary lateral incisor with dull pain on chewing, suppurative sinus tract, defective metal-ceramic crown and iatrogenic internal root resorption, an interdisciplinary approach was taken. two-visit nonsurgical treatment with calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement, replacement of metal-ceramic crown with all-ceramic crown and corrective periodontal plastic surger...

Internal root resorption is a relatively unusual resorption that begins in the root canal and destroys surrounding dental hard tissues. Multinuclear Odontoclastic cells are responsible for the resorption, which can grow and may perforate the root if left untreated. Internal root resorption is usually asymptomatic, but sinus tract usually forms in case of perforated type of internal resorption. ...

Internal inflammatory root resorption is a relatively rare resorption that begins in the root canal and destroys surrounding dental hard tissues. Odontoclastic multinuclear cells are responsible for the resorption, which can grow to perforate the root if untreated. The initiating factor in internal root resorption is thought to be trauma or chronic pulpal inflammation, but other etiological fac...

internal resorption is rare in permanent teeth. treatment is usually performed through warm gutta-percha technique. if the resorptive process perforates the root, treatment may be more difficult and is usually performed via surgical approach. non-surgical repair of a perforating internal root resorption with mta was conducted in this case. before repairing the resorption, a master gutta-percha ...

Internal root resorption is a chronic inflammatory process initiated within the pulp space with the loss of dentin. This condition demands a comprehensive understanding of the pathologic process, so as to identify the cause and arrest the resorptive phenomena. It is a rare occurrence, asymptomatic, with slow progression, detected through routine radiographic examination, where it appears as a r...

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,...
