“…However, this theory does not explain lesions in permanent molars, which have no overlying primary teeth. This theory does not explain the presence of defects in 13 teeth (2 of which were supernumerary teeth) without their precursory primary teeth in our study, or reports of similar cases in previous studies [4][5][6][13][14][15][16][17][18].…”

“…As the radiographic appearance of the radiolucency is similar to that of dental caries, they were often referred to as ''pre-eruptive caries'' in earlier literature [4]. Recently, many case reports have provided clinical and histological evidence that these lesions are likely to be resorptive in nature [3,[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13], and the term ''pre-eruptive intracoronal resorption or defect'' is now preferred [3,6,11,14,15]. Clinical symptoms of these lesions are usually minimal or absent, and are characteristically noted as incidental findings on routine dental radiographs of unerupted teeth [1-3, 9, 10].…”

Objective To determine the prevalence, types of teeth, and distribution of intracoronal resorption in permanent dentition in a large population. Methods A total of 9,570 panoramic radiographs were screened, and 2,922 unerupted teeth were examined. Results The prevalence of intracoronal dentine defects was 1.55% in subjects and 0.95% in teeth. The highest prevalence of intracoronal radiolucencies was noted in the mandibular second molar (9.5%), followed by the maxillary second premolar tooth (4.7%). To our knowledge, this is the first report of coronal radiolucency in maxillary supernumerary teeth. Of the lesions identified, 39.3% were two-thirds of the dentine thickness, and 21.4% included the enamel; 85.7% of the defects were located at the central aspect of the crown. Ectopically positioned teeth showing intracoronal resorption accounted for 14.3% of the cases. Conclusions Intracoronal resorption in an unerupted tooth occurs frequently and can be seen in more than one tooth in an individual. This condition is usually associated with not only an ectopic position but also resorption, which may be a progressive process. Dental clinicians should conduct periodic follow-ups, both clinical and radiographic, of these unerupted teeth.

“…As the radiographic appearance of the resorption resembles that of dental caries, they were often called “pre‐eruptive caries” (Baab et al ., ). However, over the last two decades, many case reports and a few studies have provided clinical and histological findings that these lesions are likely resorptive in nature (O'Neal et al ., ; Seow et al ., ; Klambani et al ., ; Uzun et al ., ). Thus, the term “pre‐eruptive intracoronal resorption (PIR) or defect” is preferred (O'Neal et al ., ; Seow et al ., ; Klambani et al ., ).…”

“…In case of smaller lesions, when teeth are in their eruptive stages it is better to wait and watch after tooth eruption. In case of large lesions when teeth are not yet erupted, surgically exposing the tooth is considered to curette and to restore the lesion [10].…”

Dental caries appears to be the most prevalent infectious disease in the world. Occult caries/ hidden carious lesions are very challenging for detection as far as dentists are concerned. However, the nature of these lesions, their etiologies and the reasons of why they have eluded early, clinical diagnosis are still unclear. Till date only a very few microbiological studies have been conducted to obtain an insight into the bacteriological profile of these lesions which can also be an etiological factor. The aim of this case report is to present one such case of occult caries which also includes a microbiologic analysis of the lesion. It also includes a novel approach using revascularization for the management of the affected immature tooth.
