title: Detection of intracoronal resorption in an unerupted developing premolar: report of case.
abstract: Identification of a resorptive lesion in an unerupted premolar is detailed in this report of a 10-year-old female. The lesion was discovered during a periodic recall examination. Early detection and treatment of this resorptive process will minimize its potentially destructive capacity. Radiographic inspection of this lesion in the preeruptive dentition should be routinely performed.
