Root Resorption

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 12

Abstract

Root resorptions include all situations which mineralized dental tissues are eliminated by clastic cells at some point on the surface of the tooth. They are classified as internal or external, although the combination of the two types may occur in the same dental element. The scientific knowledge of the etiology, classification and development of this pathology contributes to the definition of the correct diagnosis and execution of an adequate plan of treatment to the case. The aim of this work was to report through a literature review the types of dental resorptions, conceptualizing and explaining their clinical and histological characteristics. It can be concluded that there is no consensus on the etiology of dental resorption and that the differential diagnosis between internal and external resorption is fundamental for the treatment proposal in order to reestablish the patient's oral health.
