Abstract :
Invasive cervical resorption (ICR) is a particularly aggressive form of external tooth resorption that originates in the cervical region of the involved tooth. The primary treatment objective is to completely remove all the resorbing tissues and restoration of the resorptive defect using an appropriate filling material to achieve functional and aesthetic demands. Managing defects that extend both towards the crown and root can be particularly challenging.This case report describes the management of a case of Class 3 (Heithersay classification) and 2Bp (Patel 3D classification) ICR in the maxillary right central incisor. The approach involved a surgical procedure to remove the affected tissue followed by restoration of the defect using a tri-layered combination of Biodentine, resin-modified glass ionomer cement and composite resin.Dr Aleena Jose, Dr Anulekh Babu, Dr Sam Joseph V G, Dr Satheesh S L, Dr Rasha Usman M
