Summary
Genetic disorders can cause pathological root resorption in permanent teeth, aiding diagnosis. This review identified 14 genetic pathologies, including metabolic and calcium-phosphorus disorders, linked to root resorption.
Area of Science:
- Dental Medicine
- Genetics
- Pathology
Background:
- Root resorption in permanent teeth is a frequent complication of dental trauma or orthodontic treatment.
- Less commonly, root resorption can be a diagnostic indicator for underlying genetic disorders.
Conclusions:
- The findings expand the classification of genetic disorders linked to root resorption.
- Identifying these genetic links can potentially improve diagnostic approaches for rare conditions.
- Highlights the role of genetic factors in the etiology of pathological root resorption.

01:19Overview of Regeneration and Repair
4.0K
Regeneration and repair processes are critical in healing damages caused by injury, disease, and aging. In regeneration, the damaged tissue is entirely replaced with new growth that restores the original architecture and function. In contrast, tissue repair usually results in a fixed tissue architecture involving scar formation. Scars generally do not reestablish tissue function and may also exhibit structural abnormalities at the injury site.

Regeneration is the process of restoring injured or lost tissues, organs, or body parts. While simpler organisms generally show greater ability to regenerate their whole body, few complex animals show similarly exceptional regeneration. For example, planarian flatworms have a unique regenerative potential making them a popular study organism among biologists to understand the mechanisms of whole body regeneration. Other organisms, such as hydra, also show extreme regeneration potential;...
