Cervical root resorption.
Abstract
This article describes cervical root resorption, an external inflammatory root resorption arising immediately below the attachment level of the root. The pathogenesis is not fully understood, although many theories have been presented. Clinically, cervical root resorption is usually asymptomatic. The radiographic appearance is variable and is easily mistaken for that of internal root resorption. Histologically, the presentation is identical to that of other inflammatory root resorptions.
