Abstract

Case report: 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.
