The most important diseases or complications that may be contributed to by root resorption:
Infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99).
- Dissemination of pathogenic (disease-causing) bacteria in the blood and lymphatic circulation.
Mouth, esophagus (food pipe), stomach, and intestines (K00-K67; K90-K93).
- Ankylosis (“fusion of the teeth with the jawbone“), dentoalveolar.
- Fistula formation
- Gingivitis (inflammation of the gums)
- Infraocclusion (in ankylosis growing patients).
- Bone resorption
- Periodontitis (inflammation of the periodontium).
- Pulpitis (inflammation of the dental nerve)
- Recurrence (recurrence of the disease)
- Spontaneous fracture (spontaneous fracture) of the root
- Root perforation
- Tooth fracture (tooth collapse, incomplete fracture).
- Tooth loss
Further
- Surgical intervention
- Tooth extraction (tooth removal)
- Periodontal surgery (surgical procedures on the periodontium/dental periodontium).
