Multiple invasive cervical resorption and celiac disease: A case report

Quintessence Int. 2018;49(5):407-412. doi: 10.3290/j.qi.a39688.

Abstract

Multiple invasive cervical resorption (MICR) is a rare disease of unknown etiology. A case of a patient with MICR of six teeth, with low vitamin D3 level detected, is presented. Applied surgical and general treatments were only partially effective, as they failed to stop the resorption, although the parameters of calcium-phosphate management appreciably improved, and secondary hyperparathyroidism was successfully resolved.
