Root resorption is the loss of hard dental material consisting of cementum and dentin. It entails two stages: injury and stimulation. Injury is associated with non-mineralized tissues covering the outside surface of the root (precementum) or it can involve the interior of the canal. The injury may be a result of mechanical injury as a result of dental trauma, surgical procedures or pressure from an impacted tooth. It also may be initiated by chemical irritation such as bleaching with 30% hydrogen peroxide. - See more at External Resorption: Causes and Possible Conservative Treatments with Tricalcium Silicate and Compos.
