Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Oral Pathology

Background:

  • Multiple idiopathic cervical resorption (MICR) is an uncommon dental condition.
  • The etiology of MICR remains largely unknown, presenting diagnostic challenges.

Observation:

  • A case study of a 36-year-old woman with MICR is presented.
  • The patient's medical history was noncontributory, but dental history proved valuable.
  • Computed tomography (CT) scans provided relevant diagnostic information.

Findings:

  • Hematologic and endocrinal investigations were unremarkable.
  • The resorption affected multiple teeth in the cervical areas.
  • Lesion progression and multi-tooth involvement lacked a discernible pattern or chronology.

Implications:
