Cervical resorption in bleached teeth.
A case of cervical resorption in a bleached, pulpless tooth is reported. The tooth has not been traumatized, and no other reason for the resorption could be found except the possible effects of a caustic bleaching agent. This case further supports the evidence in the literature that a cause-and-effect relationship exists between Superoxol bleaching and cervical resorption.
