“…The odontoclastic resorption as we reported can give us an opportunity to observe the tooth resorption that begins at the predentin. It is interesting to study the process of tooth resorption initiating from the predentin, since the nonmineralized layers that cover the mineralized tissues, such as the osteoid, precementum, and predentin, are usually resistant to resorption; among these, predentin seems to be the most resistant one (REITAN, 1974;EMSLIE, 1978;GEORGE and MILLER, 1986).…”

“…2) [18]. Although pulp involvement may be seen in advanced stages of FORL [19,20], the cervical root resorption in human beings typically proceeds laterally and in an apical and coronal direction, surrounding a thin shell of dentin and predentin, and envelops the root canal, leaving an apple core appearance of the cervical area of the tooth [21].…”

Feline odontoclastic resorptive lesions (FORL) were first recognized and histologically differentiated from caries in the 1920s [1,2]. Some anecdotal reports describing caries-like lesions at the cervical region of feline teeth followed in the 1950s and 1960s, until two microscopic studies in the 1970s again revealed that FORL were not caries but a type of tooth resorption [3,4]. A recent study showed that cats with FORL have a significantly lower urine specific gravity and significantly higher serum concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) compared with cats without FORL [5], indicating that multiple tooth resorption in domestic cats could be the manifestation of some systemic insult rather than a local cause. In this article, the histologic and radiographic appearance of FORL and certain other peculiarities of feline teeth are reviewed. An attempt is then made to compare these findings with changes of the periodontium induced by administration of excess vitamin D or vitamin D metabolites in experimental animals. Histologic and radiographic features of feline odontoclastic resorptive lesionsTooth resorption is caused by odontoclasts. Their precursors derive from hematopoietic stem cells of bone marrow or spleen and migrate from blood vessels of the alveolar bone or periodontal ligament toward the external root

“…Although multiple root resorption is rare, some studies regarding this pathology are mentioned. Mueller and Rony 4 reported the first case of idiopathic cervical root resorption in 1930; since then, several cases have been reported [1][2][3][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] .In 1979, Hopkins and Adams 14 presented the case where maxillary teeth are severely affected and within 3 years all remaining teeth of both jaws were extracted because of severe resorptive process. There was no history of trauma as well as carious involvement.…”

“…When none of these causes are present, resorption of teeth is termed ''idiopathic resorption of teeth.'' 1,2 The process of root resorption involves a complex interaction of inflammatory cells, resorbing cells, hard tissue, cytokines and enzymes such as collagenase, matrix metalloproteinase and cysteine proteinase. 3,4 The periodontal ligament is a specialized connective tissue which acts as a barrier between the alveolar bone and cementum.…”

This paper describes a case of progressive idiopathic external root resorption at cement-enamel junction in multiple teeth of both jaws ongoing for 6 years. In addition to clinical features serial radiographs are presented that revealed progressive involvement of root resorption. Since the first appointment until the next 6 years no clinical, radiographic or laboratory findings were available to disclose the etiology of such extensive ongoing resorption; neither the provided treatments could arrest the progression of the pathology that forced the clinicians to diagnose the case as progressive idiopathic external resorption.Update Dent.
