    The Nuts and Bolts of Root Resorption and How to Treat It

    What’s interesting about root resorption is that it utilizes our own soft tissue cells to work against us, initiates its attack against the tooth from the inside out and from the outside in. In this podcast, presented by Endodontist Dr. Phil Klein, we’ll learn about this insidious process and hopefully we’ll get a better understanding of the fundamentals behind the different types of root resorption. By doing so, we as clinicians, can sharpen our diagnostic skills and optimally manage these conditions on a case by case basis.
