Root resorption is a condition resulting in the progressive loss of dental hard tissue. It may occur both within the root and upon the external aspect of the root. Diagnosis can be difficult and management challenging. Understanding the pathology is critical to understanding why and when this disease occurs and what the best management techniques involve. With such knowledge practitioners can confidently diagnose resorption, discuss prognoses and management strategies with the patient and either refer or begin treatment. Early intervention is paramount in improving outcomes. As such, if practitioners choose to refer patients they must be aware of what can be done immediately to mitigate risks until consultation and specialist treatment begins.
牙根吸收是一种导致牙齿硬组织逐渐丧失的病症。它可能发生在牙根内部和牙根外部。诊断可能困难，治疗也具有挑战性。了解其病理对于理解这种疾病为何发生、何时发生以及最佳治疗技术包括哪些内容至关重要。有了这些知识，从业者就能自信地诊断吸收情况，与患者讨论预后和治疗策略，并进行转诊或开始治疗。早期干预对于改善治疗结果至关重要。因此，如果从业者选择转诊患者，则必须清楚在会诊和专科治疗开始之前可以立即采取哪些措施来降低风险。
