title: Localized idiopathic internal resorption in the primary dentition.
abstract: METHODS
  We present the clinical and histological findings in a case of a six year old male patient who had unexplained sequential spontaneous abscesses associated with an unusual pattern of resorption, resulting in the loss of his non-carious second primary molars.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Despite a wide differential diagnosis, the case represents unusual clinical and histological features of resorption in multiple primary teeth.
