External Root Resorption – Try to Save or Extract: A Case Report

Journal Title: Journal of Contemporary Medicine and Dentistry - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 3

Abstract

Root resorption is the loss of dentine and cementum because of the activity of osteoclastic cells. There are many classifications and terms for different types of root resorption. Sometimes root resorption can lead to tooth extraction. A new generation of bioceramic compounds has shown many advantages for the surgical repair of root defects. This clinical case report demonstrates the use of bioceramic formulations for the surgical repair and 1-year follow – up of an extensive external root resorption defect in a lower right canine.
