Solomonov M, Hadad A, Ben Itzhak J, Lvovsky A, Azizi H. Is a Pre-Existent Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Able to Detect Metal Dental Posts? Dent J (Basel) 2024; 12:229. [PMID: 39057016 PMCID: PMC11276458 DOI: 10.3390/dj12070229] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2024] [Revised: 06/30/2024] [Accepted: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: In this study, the efficacy of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in detecting dental posts was compared to periapical radiography. (2) Methods: A retrospective evaluation of 53 patients' periapical radiographs and CBCT images was performed. The presence and type of the intra-canal dental post were initially determined on the periapical images (PA) radiographs' examination and were then compared to the observer's ability to detect the dental post on a CBCT image. The effect of the post's type (metal cast or prefabricated) on its detection on CBCT images was determined. (3) Results: 10.5% of teeth that were identified as having a post on a PA radiograph were not identified as having a post on the CBCT examination (p < 0.05). Approximately 17.6% of teeth that were identified as not having a post on a PA radiograph were identified as having a post on the CBCT examination (p < 0.05). Moreover, 16.3% and 50% of teeth with a prefabricated or cast posts on PA radiographs were falsely identified on the CBCT examination, respectively (p < 0.05). (4) Conclusions: A CBCT image is an insufficient tool for the identification of metal prefabricated and cast posts. A PA image is the recommended radiographic tool for achieving information about the post-endodontic restoration status of teeth candidates for endodontic retreatment in patients with a former CBCT scan.

Abstract
Background/purpose External cervical resorption (ECR) is an aggressive form of root resorption, which etiology is unclear and its prognosis remains unpredictable. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognosis and potential prognostic factors of ECR-affected teeth after surgical intervention for external repair with/without root canal treatment. Materials and methods Treated ECR cases from 2009 to 2019 were collected retrospectively. The survival of the teeth and the status of root resorption were assessed during the follow-up period. Potential prognostic factors were analyzed with log-rank test and Kaplan-Meier statistics. Results A total of 42 treated ECR-affected teeth were enrolled. The two-year survival rate was 71.20% [54.16%, 93.59%]. Persistent root resorption was the main complication after treatment. Patients with multiple ECR-affected teeth had greater recurrent potential than patients with solitary ECR-affected teeth. Prolonged calcium hydroxide dressing may contribute to a more favorable clinical outcome. Gender, age, tooth position and the need for root canal treatment did not show statistically significant effect on the prognosis. Conclusion The current surgical method was able to arrest ECR in most cases. However, the case type (the number of ECR-affected teeth per patient) could highly affect the prognosis of the teeth. Clinicians should consider long-term calcium hydroxide dressing in case of pulp involvement to achieve better results.

Abstract
This review investigated whether any therapeutic options influenced the outcome of treatment for teeth with external cervical resorption. Out of 870 articles identified by an electronic search, 60 clinical case reports and six case series were included. No randomised clinical trials were found. Risk of bias was assessed using Joanna Briggs Institute's tools. External surgical intervention was the preferred method of accessing the lesions. Removal of resorptive tissue was most often achieved mechanically. Bioactive endodontic cements were the preferred materials for restoring teeth. The outcome measures were based on clinical and radiographic parameters. Of the cases included in the review, no specific treatment approach had a superior outcome in relation to Heithersay's classification. Furthermore, due to the absence of randomised clinical trials, and the low level of evidence associated with case reports/case series, it was not possible to define the optimum clinical treatment for external cervical resorption.

A clinical approach strategy for the diagnosis, treatment and evaluation of external cervical resorption. Int Endod J 2022; 55:347-373. [PMID: 35034370 DOI: 10.1111/iej.13680] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2020] [Revised: 01/05/2022] [Accepted: 01/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
AIM To propose a clinical approach strategy on the diagnosis, treatment, and evaluation of external cervical tooth resorption (ECR) cases. To investigate and discuss the outcome of this approach. METHODOLOGY A clinical approach strategy on ECR was developed based on a retrospective observation study of 542 teeth. 47 teeth were excluded due to lack of clinical/radiographical information, and 182 were immediately extracted. This approach had three steps: diagnosis, treatment planning, and evaluation. During diagnosis, the medical, dental history and clinical/radiographical characteristics were evaluated. Depending on the resorption extent, ECR cases were categorized into four classes according to Heithersay's classification. During treatment planning, a treatment decision flowchart was prepared based on four main decisive criteria: probing feasibility, pain, location and extent of resorption (class), and existence of bonelike tissue. Three treatment options were applied: a) extraction, b) monitoring, or c) conservative treatment by external, internal, or combination of internal-external treatments. During evaluation, assessment of ECR progression, tooth survival and other factors like esthetics and periodontal attachment were performed. Descriptive statistical analysis of the outcome for up to ten years (for the overall clinical approach and for each individual treatment decision), was carried out with OriginLabs OriginPro 9 and Microsoft Excel 365. RESULTS A three-step strategy was developed on how to deal with ECR cases. Indicative examples of each treatment decision were presented and discussed. The overall survival rate of this strategy was 84.6% (3 years), 70.3% (5 years), 42.7% (8 years) and 28.6% (10 years). Higher survival rate was observed for external treatment decision than for internal. The success of each treatment decision depended on the extent of the resorption (class). The success of a treatment decision should be based on the long-term outcome, as a different evolution can be observed with time. CONCLUSIONS A clinical approach strategy was introduced on ECR pathosis. This strategy was not solely based on ECR class, as other important decisive criteria were considered. This step-wise approach, has a 70.3% survival rate with a mean of 5 years. This work will hopefully provide an incentive for a broader collaboration, to potentially establish a universally accepted ECR treatment strategy.

Abstract
External cervical tooth root resorption is one of the most aggressive types of pathological resorption. Due to the uncontrolled growth of resorptive tissue, irreversible loss of dentin and cement occurs. To date, there is no common position regarding the etiological factor and pathogenesis of invasive cervical resorption. The histological picture is similar to some fibro-bone lesions. The treatment outcome of the pathology is difficult to predict because elimination of the causative factor is often not sufficient for resorption arrest. Only the complete elimination of resorptive tissue helps to stop the process. The report describes a clinical case of a successful treatment of invasive cervical resorption of dental hard tissues.

Abstract
External cervical resorption (ECR) is a relatively uncommon yet aggressive form of dental hard tissue destruction. It is initiated at the cervical aspect of the root surface and extends apicocoronally and circumferentially inside the dentin. Despite the large number of case reports and clinical studies that have investigated ECR, its etiology remains unclear. Recent advancements in clinical assessment measures, such as the use of cone-beam computed tomographic imaging, have provided additional insights into the nature of this lesion. This has facilitated the continued development and improvement of treatment methods for this condition. In this article, we provide an overview of the latest research pertaining to the etiology, histopathology, predisposing factors, diagnosis, classification, and treatment of ECR. Furthermore, we provide a summary of the different classification schemes for ECR and highlight the relevant therapeutic principles.

Abstract
Invasive cervical resorption (ICR) is a localized, subepithelial, supra-osseous resorptive process of the tooth. Although there are several predisposing factors associated with ICR, its etiology and pathogenesis are poorly understood. The damage to the protective layer on the external root surface appears to allow for the attachment of clastic cells and initiate the resorptive process, which is confined by the inner protective pericanalar resorption-resistant sheet surrounding the root canal space. The use of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is recommended for the diagnosis and assessment of a resorptive lesion. Based on the thorough evaluation of the size and location of the ICR lesion using CBCT, surgical or nonsurgical treatment can be chosen to address the source of the resorption. This review discusses the current status of knowledge regarding the biology of ICR lesions as well as their external or internal treatment using hydraulic calcium silicate-based materials. Future clinical outcome studies are necessary to evaluate the impact of hydraulic calcium silicate-based materials on the healing of ICR lesions.

Abstract
The process of resorption of hard tooth tissues is associated with the activity of osteoclasts. However, the initiation of resorption can be caused by many factors acting separately or simultaneously. The paper presents the characteristics of pathological tooth resorption. The main etiological factors, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, as well as treatment of various forms of tooth resorption are described.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Clear treatment guidelines with predictable outcomes for invasive cervical root resorption (ICRR) do not exist. Recent studies show that an internal approach for the excavation and repair of resorptive lacunae using bioactive materials might be preferred over external surgical approaches in cases with extensive ICRR. The procedure appears to interrupt and stop the resorptive process and preserves the periodontium. The aim of this case series was to report on the clinical and radiographic outcomes in cases with ICRR treated with vital pulp therapy techniques using calcium-enriched mixture cement. METHODS Teeth with the diagnosis of ICRR and normal pulpal and periodontal status were included. After rubber dam isolation and the removal of existing restorations, the resorptive lacunae were accessed internally, and the contents were partially or fully removed. A vital pulp therapy technique was chosen based on the accessibility of the resorptive lacunae during excavation. Teeth were then restored and followed up. RESULTS Six teeth with ICRR (Heithersay class 2, 3, or 4) were selected. One tooth was treated with pulp capping, 1 with partial pulpotomy, 2 with full pulpotomy, and 2 with partial pulpectomy. The average follow-up time was 19.6 months. After treatment, all teeth remained functional and asymptomatic with a normal periodontium. No progression of the resorption or development of new resorption was observed. CONCLUSIONS Internal excavation of the contents of resorptive lacunae in combination with vital pulp therapy with calcium-enriched mixture cement could be a reliable approach for the treatment of ICRR.

Abstract
A 16-year-old patient sought orthodontic correction for profile improvement and labially inclined maxillary incisors. She had Class II malocclusion, protrusive maxillary and mandibular incisors, and increased overjet and overbite with an American Board of Orthodontics discrepancy index value of 25. She was treated with maxillary premolar extractions and miniscrew-supported en masse retraction assisted with piezoincisions. Extraction spaces (7.5 mm per side) were closed with maximum anchorage in 10 months. Total treatment time was 23 months. Twenty-seven months after debonding, a pink spot was noted at the buccocervial region of the left central incisor. Radiographic evaluation on cone-beam computed tomographic scans revealed a severe case of invasive cervical resorption on both central incisors, around which the piezosurgical cuts had been made. Treatment proceeded with a nonintervention approach and the affected teeth were reinforced with a lingual retainer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The selection of treatment for advanced (classes 3 and 4) invasive cervical resorption (ICR) based on a two-dimensional periapical radiograph is challenging. The purpose of the present study is to describe different treatment approaches for advanced invasive cervical resorption based on cone-beam computed tomography evaluation. MATERIALS AND METHODS All cases of advanced ICR based on CBCT evaluation in our endodontic department between 2011 and 2016 were included in the study. The dimension, circumferential, and coronal-cervical locations of the entry point of the resorption tissue into the tooth were evaluated. The selected treatment approach for each case was documented, and all the data were summarized and analyzed. RESULTS Twenty-three cases of advanced ICR were included in the study. Approximately, 74% were diagnosed in stage 4, and 26% were diagnosed in stage 3. The narrow entry point was identified in 43% (10 cases), while in 57% (13) of cases, the entry point was wide. Circumferentially, 70% (16) were located on the proximal side. Coronal-cervically, 43% (10) were located more than 1.5 mm above the crestal bone. All narrow entry point cases were treated using a minimally invasive technique, while different treatment approaches were chosen for cases with a wide entry point. CONCLUSIONS The present study proposes different treatment approaches for advanced ICR based on CBCT. The CBCT evaluation of the entry point may facilitate choosing the appropriate treatment approach for advanced ICR cases. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The description of different treatment approaches for advanced invasive cervical resorption based on cone-beam computed tomography evaluation enables the clinician to choose the optimal treatment approach for each advanced ICR case.

Abstract
Root resorption is a pathological condition that may be an endodontic challenge if not diagnosed and treated correctly. The recent advances in the imaging technologies and material science have enabled the clinician to visualize the structural changes accurately and repair them with materials providing favourable seal ability. In this article, we report three cases of root resorption with different presentations which were diagnosed with the help of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and successfully managed. The series highlights the importance of diagnosis in unusual clinical situations and recommends early commencement of optimal management for longevity of tooth for health and function.

All cases of EIR that were referred to the endodontic department between 2011 to 2016 and diagnosed by an endodontist were evaluated. Demographic and clinical characteristics were collected and evaluated. Thirty-eight cases of EIR diagnosed between 2011 and 2016 were included in the study. Seventy-one percent of EIR cases were misdiagnosed by general practitioners. The most affected teeth were the maxillary central incisors (29% of cases) and mandibular molars (26%). Sixty-eight percent of EIR cases were diagnosed in teeth with clinically normal pulp. Pulp necrosis was observed mainly in the advanced stages (class 3 and class 4) of EIR (75%) and in teeth with a history of trauma (63%). Histories of previous trauma and orthodontic treatment were reported in 29% and 23% of cases, respectively.
