I have been told today that I have tooth resorption on my front tooth. This was noticed by my orthodontist. My question is could my braces have made this happen (I have had them off for 4 months now) and what is the best treatment? She spoke about root canal filling and is this going to make it permanently better?

Dear Bradley,<\/p>\n

It is common for most patients going through orthodontic treatment to incur some root resorption during the treatment process. The root resorption most likely will stop now that your braces<\/a> are off, no further treatment should be necessary, and the possibility of you losing the tooth in the future is highly unlikely. Now if your resorption is severe and you have bone loss around the tooth then the probability of losing the tooth in greatly increased. Only if your tooth is infected will you need to have a root canal. Our advice to you is to see an endodontist for an evaluation of the tooth. Endodontist specialize in root canal treatments. If they say the tooth is not infected then you will not need any treatment even if root resorption is present. We advise you to have your tooth x-rayed at least once a year during your dental check-ups to make sure your tooth is not losing any bone and that the resorption is stabilized.<\/p>\n
