root resorption

In rare cases, the teeth may fall out or have to be extracted due to root resorption.

Your problem could be decay, staining, tooth or root resorption.

Severe root resorption is very difficult to treat and often requires the extraction of teeth.

All teeth that have been knocked out should be replanted but watched carefully for the development of root resorption.

Root resorption is rare but may occur.

The method by which the body rejects the replanted tooth is a process called "replacement root resorption".

Root resorption and tooth movement are rare.

Root resorption of secondary teeth can occur as a result of pressure on the root surface.

However, X-rays are recommended prior to this treatment to document root resorption and lack of the periodontal ligament.

The dental displacement obtained with the orthodontic appliance determines in most cases some degree of root resorption.

Deciduous root resorption is a natural process which allows exfoliation of the primary teeth to make way for the secondary teeth.

This is called "root resorption" It is a slow, but non-painful, process that is sometimes not observed by x-rays for years.

Treating orthodontically induced root resorption.

In dentistry, root resorption is the breakdown or destruction, and subsequent loss, of the root structure of a tooth.

The long-term retention rate decreases as the time that the tooth is detached increases, and eventually root resorption makes replacement of the tooth impossible.

Deciduous root resorption is caused by osteoclast differentiation due to pressure exerted by the erupting permanent tooth.

Some root resorption of the apical portion of the root may occur, however, if orthodontic pressures are excessive and movement is too fast.

Answer: Systemic sclerosis (commonly known as scleroderma), can cause jaw bone resorption and tooth root resorption, which can cause ligament loosening.

The natural inhibition to root resorption provided by the lining of the root may be altered by increased amounts of Vitamin D, in cats supplied by their diet.

The erupting permanent teeth causes root resorption, where the permanent teeth push on the roots of the deciduous teeth, causing the roots to be dissolved and become absorbed by the forming permanent teeth.

Root resorption occurs as a result of differentiation of macrophages into osteoclasts in surrounding tissue which, if in close proximity to the root surface will resorb the root surface cementum and underlying root dentine.

Almost all other types of orthodontic treatment will cause the roots of teeth to shorten (root resorption) for most patients, and demineralisation or tooth decay occurs in up to 50% of patients because (unlike Invisalign) they cannot be removed for eating and cleaning, and because they prevent accurate x-rays from being taken.
