Root Canal Treatment of Internal Replacement Root Resorption
Keywords:
internal root resorption, replacement root resorption, root canal treatmentAbstract
Internal replacement root resorption is a resorptive process originated within intra-radicular dentin followed by deposition
of hard tissue. The etiology is still unclear. Clinical managements are complicated in many aspects of treatment, including
differential diagnosis, access opening, root canal cleaning and the three-dimensional root canal obturation in the area of resorptive
defect. This case report aimed to present the root canal treatment procedures of maxillary central incisor with internal
replacement root resorption.
