Abstract
Maxillary Canine Internal Root Resorption Concomitant to Orthodontic Retraction: Cone Beam Evaluation
Highlights
The objective of this retrospective study was to investigate maxillary canine internal root resorption (IRR) concomitant to orthodontic retraction evaluated by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) image of maxillary teeth had been taken before treatment and after canine retraction using optimal orthodontic force (150g)
The literature is very rich with different studies covering external root resorption (ERR) subsequent to orthodontic treatment of dental malocclusion, which is investigating by different radiographs ending by the use of cone-beam computed tomography (CPCT) [119]
Summary
The objective of this retrospective study was to investigate maxillary canine internal root resorption (IRR) concomitant to orthodontic retraction evaluated by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). In a case report the authors reported extensive internal resorption affecting the crown of orthodontically treated teeth which could extend into the root canal and ‘pink tooth’ [21]. In view of this shortage, it will be worth to investigate internal root resorption concomitant to orthodontic retraction of maxillary canine in first premolars extraction orthodontics, using CBCT
