Good morning @glojo Resorption in teeth can happen for a number of reasons. First, can you tell me what kind of resorption is happening? Was this seen on xray and the roots are becoming shorter?
Do you remember having any impact to this area or extensive dental treatment to those teeth that are involved?
How about location…front teeth, molars in the back? Top arch or lower?

You mentioned having osteoporosis. Are you taking any medication to rebuild bone?

Three teeth on lower right, incisor and behind, found on routine xray, internal resorption. The roots and the pulp are affected. I have never had orthodontics or any injury to the area. I am not on any medications. The dentist and endo say that many times there is no explanation. That’s hard for me to accept, given I am in excellent health otherwise.
