The use of cone beam computed tomography in diagnosis and surgical management of a case of internal root resorption: A case report
Abstract
This study represents a case of extensive perforating internal root resorption in tooth 7 in 22-yearold female, with a history of trauma in the anterior segment of maxilla in childhood. Diagnosiswas made by clinical manifestation, intraoral periapical radiograph and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). CBCT has superior diagnostic accuracy that results in better management ofcomplicated cases. Due to hemorrhage from the perforation site into the canal, and inability to dry the canal space surgical approach was employed to seal the resorptive defect. Clinical and radiographicexamination revealed a successful outcome six months after treatment.Key words: Internal Resorption, cone beam computed tomography, surgical management.Jacobovitz M, De Lima R.
