title: External multiple invasive cervical resorption with subsequent arrest of the resorption.
abstract: A rare, the uncommon, case of multiple invasive cervical resorption (MICR) with subsequent arrest of the resorption involving eight teeth of the mandible (tooth 46 to tooth 32) is presented. This case is noteworthy because of the characteristics of its clinical evolution. There have only been a few cases in the literature were found presenting involvement of such a large number of teeth. Furthermore, no reports on cases of MICR with arrest of the resorption, as described in this report, were found.
