Abstract
Multiple idiopathic cervical root resorptions is a rare condition which is usually detected as an incidental radiographic finding. It involves more than 3 teeth in the same patient and the etiology remains elusive. Diagnosis and treatment of the defect is still challenging. The present report describes a case with progressive multiple external cervical resorption involving 8 teeth, including the history, clinical and radiographic findings. Treatment included surgical intervention and restoration of the defect. A 3-month reevaluation of the case confirmed a stable, uneventful clinical recovery.Entities:
