Abstract:   (5840 Views)
Pre-Eruptive Intracronal Radiolucency (PEIR) is seen as a radiolucent anomaly at coronal dentin of unerupted teeth. PEIR is often confused with dental caries because of their similarities. Pre-eruptive intracoronal resorptions are typically observed as radiolucency in dentin tissue and the lesions are close to the enamel dentin junction. Lesions are often accidentally noticed on the radiographs of the unerupted tooth. The aetiology of REIR is not clear and mechanism of its progression is not fully understood. But some of the histological studies described its resorptive nature. The treatment of pre-eruptive intracoronal resorption varies according to the progression of the lesion. The aim of this case report is to present the diagnosis of pre-eruptive radiolucency in three unerupted teeth in the same patient. Case report: 7 years old girl admitted to our clinic for dental caries. After taken panoramic radiography PEIR was detected at ♯16, ♯26 and ♯46. After detailed examination we decided to wait eruption for restorative procedures. Conclusion: Early detection and classification of PEIR lesions will always help to build treatment plans for patients.
