Cervical root resorption represents a challenging pathological process in dentistry, where the loss of dental hard tissue occurs at the cervical region of the tooth root. This condition ...

Evidence suggests that orthodontic treatment causes an increased incidence and severity of apical root resorption. Tooth length and root volume were reduced after orthodontic intervention.

Resorption may affect your: Enamel Dentin Cementum Pulp‌ Root ‌External resorption is more common than internal resorption. Decay usually happens from the outside in. It's a natural process ...

Panoramic (PAN) x-rays performed poorly in detecting external root resorption of third molars, but cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) did much better in diagnosing this condition. The study was ...

In tooth resorption, the dentin of one tooth — or many — begins to degrade and erode. This leads to lesions or damaged regions in the tooth. The decay begins at the base, near the root ...

In the 1920s, Weston Price, a Canadian dentist, theorized that root canals – procedures in which infected or inflamed pulp is removed from the inside of a tooth – allow bacteria to "leak ...

While most people can expect some discomfort during and after a root canal procedure, excessive pain is not typical. How long some pain lasts after a root canal can vary, but it should ease within ...

Root canal treatment, also known as root canal therapy or endodontic therapy, is a dental treatment for removing an infection from inside a tooth. It can also protect the tooth from future ...

However, root resorption occurs 3-dimensionally, and 2D images cannot detect root resorption on lingual or buccal surfaces nor measure the volume of root loss. Therefore, quantification of ...
