Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) repair of a mandibular second-primary molar tooth with an inflammatory resorptive defect in the coronal third of the root canal is reported in this case. After the root canals were obturated with zinc oxide eugenol sealer, MTA was applied to the resorption cavity. The coronal cavity was then restored with a stainless steel crown. At an 18-month follow-up, the tooth was asymptomatic clinically and radiographically. According to this result, it can be concluded that MTA may be a suitable material for use in the treatment of internal resorption in the coronal third of the root canal in primary teeth.

Internal root resorption (IRR) is a rare but complex condition characterized by progressive destruction of the internal dentin walls, typically resulting from chronic pulp inflammation, trauma, or infection. Managing apical IRR, particularly in teeth with extensive apical lesions, presents significant challenges due to the limitations of traditional root canal treatment (RCT) and obturation techniques. This report discusses the nonsurgical management of two contralateral mandibular first molars in a 49-year-old male patient, both exhibiting apical IRR and large endodontic lesions.

BACKGROUND Internal root resorption (IRR) is a rare dental condition characterized by the progressive resorption of dentin within the root canal, often resulting from infection, trauma, or orthodontic treatment. When IRR progresses to perforation, it creates a communication pathway with periodontal tissues, necessitating effective endodontic therapy and perforation repair. Bioceramic sealers, known for their biocompatibility and flowability, have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional materials for filling and sealing the root canal system.

The repair of critical-sized bone defects represents significant clinical challenge. An alternative approach is the use of 3D composite scaffolds to support bone regeneration. Hydroxyapatite (HA) and tri-calcium phosphate (β-TCP), combined with polycaprolactone (PCL), offer promising mechanical resistance and biocompatibility.

This study analyzed the association of romosozumab, a human monoclonal antibody with bone-forming and bone resorption-inhibiting effects, and bisphosphonates with the development of cardiovascular disease among patients with osteoporosis. A new-user design was employed to address selection bias, and instrumental variable analysis was used to address confounding by indication. Japanese patients aged ≥40 years, diagnosed with osteoporosis or experienced a fragility fracture, were admitted to medical facilities covered by a commercial administrative claims database, and newly prescribed romosozumab or bisphosphonates after the commercialization of romosozumab in Japan (March 4, 2019) were included based on verification of a 180-day washout period.

Background: To analyze the survival rate of teeth affected by invasive cervical resorption after internal and external repair.
Material And Methods: A search was conducted in PubMed/Medline, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, the Cochrane Library, and gray literature at the DANS Easy Archive until September 2023. The selected studies were subjected to risk assessment of bias, and the quality of evidence was assessed using the Newcastle Ottawa Scale.
