Abstract

Background:  Invasive cervical resorption which was characterized by its cervical location and invasive nature leads to the progressive destruction of tooth structure where the etiology is multifactorial. The diagnosis of ICR can be challenging, and detection is often by an incidental radiographic finding. The radiographic appearance of ICR varies considerably depending on the size and nature of the lesion. Proper diagnosis with advancements in digital imaging and management of this condition with biocompatible material with mineralization properties is key to the successful outcome. This article aimed to discuss two case reports of invasive cervical root resorption and its management using material like MTA.

Keywords: Mineral Trioxide Aggregate; invasive cervical root resorption; CBCT, Diode laser.
