Idiopathic external root resorption is an apparently infrequently occurrence involving single or multiple teeth. Presented is an unusual case of multiple external root resorption associated with craniopharyngioma. Although the cause of this resorption was not determined, several possibilities are discussed. The literature to a systemic etiology for external root resorption is briefly reviewed.

An ameloblastoma produces more extensive resorption of the teeth on which it encroaches than do most of the other lesions. In this study, intraoral and extraoral radiographs of 78 cases of ameloblastoma were observed and the root resorption associated with ameloblastoma was classified into four types of resorption. With these, the following conclusions were obtained. 1. The root resorption was observed in 72 cases of ameloblastoma. (92.3%) 2. In the aspect of resorptive changes of 424 roots observed, 342 roots showed smooth resorption. (80.6%) 3. The 424 roots associated with ameloblastoma revealed the following radiographic features. a) Root apex resorption in contact with the lesion appeared in 189 roots. (44.5%) b) The resorption of roots projected into the lesion appeared in 147 roots. (34.6%) c) Slight resorption of root surface in contact with the lesion was observed in 56 roots. (13.2%) d) Loss of lamina dura and periodontal space without root resorption were observed in 32 roots. (7.7%)

Root resorption is conventionally divided into internal and external varieties. Internal resorption occurs where there is loss of the internal wall of the root canal. and is usually associated with a localized area of necrotic pulp(Trope '||'&'||' Chivian 1984). External resorption occurs where there is loss of the external surface of the root and the resorption may be either transient or progressive(Tronstad 1988). External inflammatory resorption usually occurs following damage to the periodontal ligament or where there is communication between the periodontal ligament and a necrotic pulp. via open dentinal tubules or accessory canals. This type of resorption is usually progressive until root canal treatment is instituted (Barclay 1993).

유치 치근 흡수가 일어나는 경우는 임상에서 많이 접할 수 있다. 유치 치근 흡수는 나이에 따른 생리적 흡수와 치아우식증 및 외상 등으로 비정상적으로 흡수되는 염증성 흡수로 나눌 수 있다. 염증성 흡수는 그 시기와 양상이 생리적인 치근 흡수와는 다르며, 흡수기전이나 흡수면의 미세구조에 있어서도 많은 차이가 있을 것으로 사료된다. 유치 치근 흡수면의 미세구조에 대한 연구는 많이 있었으나, 생리적 흡수면과 염증성 흡수면의 미세구조를 비교한 연구는 드물다. 본 연구는 생리적 흡수면과 염증성 흡수면의 형태 및 인접한 세포를 연구하기 위하여 생리적 및 염증성 흡수로 인해 발거된 유치 치근의 흡수 표면을 주사전자현미경상으로, 조직학적 형태를 광학현미경상으로 관찰하여 다음과 같은 차이점을 알 수 있었다. 1. 주사전자현미경상에서 생리적 유치 치근 흡수 표면은 타원형, 원형 및 다각형 모양의 흡수소와가 관찰되었고, 염증성 흡수 표면은 크기가 작으며 형태가 다양하고 매우 불규칙한 무정형 형태의 흡수소와가 관찰되었다. 2. 광학현미경상에서 생리적 유치 치근 흡수면은 흡수소와로 구성된 규칙적인 큰 흡수와가 관찰되었고, 염증성 흡수면은 불규칙한 흡수소와가 관찰되었다. 3. 광학현미경상에서 생리적 유치 치근 흡수면에는 다핵거대세포가 흡수소와에 직접 접하고 있었으며, 염증성 흡수면은 간엽세포 및 염증세포가 많이 관찰되었다. 4. 광학현미경상에서 염증성 치근 흡수면에서는 상아질 흡수를 보상하는 부분적인 백악질 형성이 관찰되었다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate root resorption and alveolar bone resorption pattern by jiggling movement. 16 adult cats were divided into 4 groups(6, 12, 18, 24 days). In test side, mesio-distal jiggling force was applied in right maxillary 1st premolar in 3 days cycle In control side, mesial force was applied in left maxillary 1st premolar. Radiographic and histologic observation were performed in 6, 12, 18, 24 days after force application. The results were as follow: 1. Alveolar bone resorption was more severe by jiggling force than by unidirectional force. 2. Root resorption pattern was not different between jiggling force and unidirectional force. 3. Combined pattern of bone resorption and new bone formation appeared in jiggling group. 4. New bone formation began to appear at periapical area of jiggling group after 24 days, because alveolar bone resorption was severe and extrusion resulted.

Root resorption is loss of dental hard tissue as a result of clastic activities. The dental hard tissue of permanent teeth does not normally undergo resorption, except in cases of inflammation or trauma. However, there are rare cases of tooth resorption of an unknown cause, known as "idiopathic root resorption". This report would discuss a rare case of multiple idiopathic resorption in the permanent maxillary and mandibular teeth of an otherwise healthy 36-year-old male patient. In addition to a clinical examination, the patient was imaged using conventional radiography and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The examinations revealed multiple external and internal resorption of the teeth in all four quadrants of the jaws with an unknown cause. Multiple root resorption is a rare clinical phenomenon that should be examined using different radiographic modalities. Cross-sectional CBCT is useful in the diagnosis and examination of such lesions.

Invasive cervical resorption is a relatively uncommon form of external root resorption. It is characterized by invasion of cervical region of the root by fibrovascular tissue derived from the periodontal ligament. This case presents an invasive cervical resorption occurring in maxillary lateral incisor, following damage in cervical cementum from avulsion and intracoronal bleaching procedure. Flap reflection, debridement and restoration with glass ionomer cement were performed in an attempt to repair the defect. But after 2 mon, more resorption extended apically. Considering root stability and recurrence potential, we decided to extract the tooth. Invasive cervical resorption in advanced stages may present great challenges for clinicians. Therefore, prevention and early detection must be stressed when dealing with patients presenting history of potential predisposing factors.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the volume, amount, and localization of root resorption in the maxillary first premolars using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) after expansion with four different rapid maxillary expansion (RME) appliances. Methods: In total, 20 patients who required RME and extraction of the maxillary first premolars were recruited for this study. The patients were divided into four groups according to the appliance used: mini-implant-supported hybrid RME appliance, hyrax RME appliance, acrylic-bonded RME appliance, and full-coverage RME appliance. The same activation protocol (one activation daily) was implemented in all groups. For each group, the left and right maxillary first premolars were scanned using micro-CT, and each root were divided into six regions. Resorption craters in the six regions were analyzed using special CTAn software for direct volumetric measurements. Data were statistically analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance and Mann-Whitney U test with Bonferroni adjustment. Results: The hybrid expansion appliance resulted in the lowest volume of root resorption and the smallest number of craters (p < 0.001). In terms of overall root resorption, no significant difference was found among the other groups (p > 0.05). Resorption was greater on the buccal surface than on the lingual surface in all groups except the hybrid appliance group (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The findings of this study suggest that all expansion appliances cause root resorption, with resorption craters generally concentrated on the buccal surface. However, the mini-implant-supported hybrid RME appliance causes lesser root resorption than do other conventional appliances.

하악과두 흡수(condylar resorption)는 하악과두 용해라고도 하며 과두형태변화와 크기 감소가 점진적으로 또는 갑작스럽게 일어나는 것으로 정의할 수 있다. 원인은 잘 알려져 있지 않지만 류머티스 관절염, 전신성 홍반성 낭창, 스테로이드 복용(usage), 교정치료, 악교정 수술후 일어나는 과두흡수(secondary condylar resorption)와 특별한 원인 없이 일어나는 특발성 과두흡수(primary condylar resortion)로 나눌 수 있다. 이러한 하악과두 흡수가 발생하는 경우에는 골소실로 인해 이환측 과두에서 후방 지지의 갑작스런 상실이 초래된다. 이로인해 하악이 변위될수 있으며 교합변화, 개방교합과 같은 교합변화와 하악의 후퇴가 나타날 수 있다. 이에 저자는 하악과두 흡수가 일어난 증례를 보고하며 과두흡수와 관련된 인자, 병리기전, 환자관리에 대해 고찰하고자 한다.

전신적 또는 국소적 요소에 의하여 유치 치근이 병적으로 흡수될 수 있으며 치아 우식증이나 외상 등으로 염증성 치근 흡수가 발생할 수 있다. 유치의 병적 치근 흡수면은 생리적인 치근 흡수와 비교할 때 흡수면의 세포와 흡수와의 형태 등의 흡수 양상이 다르다. 이 연구는 생리적 치근 흡수, 외상, 염증성 치근 흡수면의 형태 및 인접한 세포를 주사전자현미경과 광학현미경으로 관찰하였다. 생리적 치근 흡수면의 흡수소와는 원형과 타원형이고 비교적 작고 균일하였다. 외상으로 인한 치근 흡수면과 염증성 치근 흡수면의 흡수소와는 생리적 치근 흡수면의 흡수소와에 비해 다각형이며 크고 불규칙하였다. 생리적 치근 흡수면과 외상으로 인한 치근 흡수면, 염증성 치근 흡수면에서 다핵거대세포와 단핵세포가 관찰되었으며 염증성 치근 흡수면에서는 간엽세포 및 염증세포가 많이 분포되어 있었다. 생리적 치근 흡수면과 외상으로 인한 치근 흡수면에서는 흡수 표면에 백악질양 조직이 침착되었으나, 염증성 치근 흡수면에서는 관찰되지 않았다.
