Resumen
ZMENER, Osvaldo y DELLA PORTA, Roberto. Endodontics and orthodontics. Part 2. Clinical cases. Rev. Asoc. Odontol. Argent. [online]. 2021, vol.109, n.2, pp.91-99. Epub 20-Ago-2021. ISSN 2683-7226. http://dx.doi.org/10.52979/raoa.1120.
Aim:
To describe the endodontic treatment of four clinical cases of permanent teeth suffering root resorption during or after orthodontic treatment.
Clinical cases:
Four clinical cases of permanent teeth with root resorption were endodontically treated. After the root canals were prepared and disinfected, they were medicated with calcium hydroxide. After an appropriate observation period, the canals were finally filled with MTA. The treatment outcomes were clinically and radiographically assessed at an interval between one to four years according to the clinical case. The histological findings of teeth that required extraction was also described. Our clinical and radiographic observations suggest that a temporary filling with calcium hydroxide and further obturation with MTA can provide a favorable intracanal environment for apical and periradicular tissue reparation. The clinician needs a full medical history to be aware of the systemic diseases in patients with root resorption that will be of importance for the proper selection of treatment.
