Management of invasive cervical resorption with Biodentine and fiber post using gutta percha for initial canal preservation: A case report
Tooth resorption can be internal or external. Invasive Cervical Resorption (ICR) is an inflammatory external resorption, which shows clinical and two-dimensional radio graphically resemblance to internal resorption. ICR is defined as “a localized resorptive process that commences on the surface of the root below the epithelial attachment and above the coronal aspect of the supporting alveolar process, namely, the zone of the connective tissue attachment. The present clinical case report describes the surgical management of invasive external cervical resorption with bioactive restorative material; Biodentine, along with reinforcement of weakened crown by fiber post in relation to upper right central incisor using gutta percha as a temporary material for initial canal preservation.
