Multiple idiopathic external cervical root resorption is a rare condition with numerous predisposing factors that have not yet been clearly elucidated. In addition, its diagnosis and treatment pose challenges for clinicians, and thus, the extraction of the involved teeth is commonly performed. Here, we report a 29-year-old pregnant woman with no contributory medical or family/social history who experienced cervical root resorption that progressed aggressively and involved all permanent teeth. This case is unique owing to the involvement of all teeth. Reports of multiple idiopathic external cervical root resorption are rare in the literature, and the pathogenesis of the condition is poorly understood. This report aims to add an additional case to the existing literature, analyse the underlying mechanisms and provide clinicians with some guidance in diagnosing cervical root resorption.
多发性特发性外源性牙根吸收是一种罕见疾病,有众多诱发因素,但尚未完全阐明。此外,其诊断和治疗给临床医生带来挑战,因此通常会拔除受累牙齿。在此,我们报告一名29岁孕妇,无相关内科病史及家族/社会史,却出现了侵袭性进展且累及所有恒牙的牙根吸收。该病例因所有牙齿均受累而独特。多发性特发性外源性牙根吸收的报道在文献中很少见,其发病机制也知之甚少。本报告旨在为现有文献增添一个病例,分析潜在机制,并为临床医生诊断牙根吸收提供一些指导。
