MULTIPLE IDIOPATHIC EXTERNAL ROOT RESORPTION /endodontic courses
This document reports a rare case of multiple idiopathic external root resorption affecting fourteen teeth, characterized by the absence of a known etiology. The condition, first described in 1930, is most common in young adult males and can manifest in apical and cervical forms. Comprehensive clinical and radiographic assessments are essential for the early diagnosis and management of this destructive dental condition.

- 2. INTRODUCTION Resorption is aprocess in which the structure of bone or teeth undergoes destruction due to osteoclastic activity. If resorption occurs in bone the cells are called osteoclast, if resorption occurs in tooth it is called odontoclast. The resorbing cell osteoclast is a multinucleated giant cell formed by fusion of mononuclear cells derived from haemopoietic stem cells. The resorbing cells on tooth surface are smaller than those on bone with few nuclei. www.indiandentalacademy.com

Pathological resorption is due to pressure of pathological condition on root. Resorption of permanent teeth was first described by BATES in 1856. www.indiandentalacademy.com

- 7. IDIOPATHIC EXTERNAL ROOT RESORPTION •Idiopathc root resorption can be internal or external. • Idiopathic external root resorption is the term used when the condition exists with out a known etiology. (Belanger & Coke-1985) • This condition was first reported by Mueller and Rony in 1930. • It is a rare condition that has been reported in single and multiple teeth. • Two types have been observed : apical and cervical (Lydiatt et al. 1989, Yusof & Ghazali 1989) • Here a rare case of multiple idiopathic resorption of fourteen teeth in the jaw is detected and presented . www.indiandentalacademy.com

- 33. DISCUSSION • Idiopathic externalroot resorption is seen most commonly in young adult males(Moazami & Karami,2007) • It does not seem to be mediated from the pulp space. It is suspected that triggering factors exist for osteoblastic and odontoblastic activity producing root resorption(Rivera & Walton 1994). www.indiandentalacademy.com
- 34. Cont……. • Special mechanismsin the periodontal ligament exist to prevent mineralization of the periodontal ligament and these periodontal ligament cells produce factors that inhibit mineralized tissue resorption and are capable of regulating bone and cementum formation (Beertsen et al. 1997, McCulloch et al. 2000) • Felix et al (1998) hypothesized that increased releasing of colony stimulating factor by the osteoblast in response to IL-1, TNF-α and TNF-β may provide a signal for the growth and maturation of osteoclast precursor cells leading to subsequent bone resorption. Such a sequence of event may occur in the periodontal ligament. www.indiandentalacademy.com
- 35. CONCLUSION The present caseis considered to be multiple idiopathic external root resorption because none of the known causes can be attributed to the presence of multiple external resorptions. An understanding of clinical and radiographic features will aid in the early diagnosis and treatment of this destructive process. Nevertheless, an ultimate goal to find the causative factors and institute preventive measures. www.indiandentalacademy.com
