Incidence of root resorption after concussion, subluxation, lateral luxation, intrusion, and extrusion: a systematic review

ConclusionsOur findings suggest that RR most commonly occurs in association with intrusive luxation and by inflammatory RR. Awareness regarding the incidence of RR after injuries is useful for clinicians to minimize the risk and severity of its occurrence, because a late diagnosis of RR may limit treatment alternatives and result in tooth loss.Clinical relevanceKnowledge about the incidence of RR in teeth with concussion and different types of luxation injuries can ensure appropriate follow-up protocols and favorable outcomes.
