Reparative bone-like tissue formation in the tooth of a systemic sclerosis patient.

CBCT may be more useful than dental radiography for diagnosing multiple root resorption in systemic sclerosis patients. When systemic sclerosis patients have calcinosis, their root status must be examined carefully. When root resorption is present in systemic sclerosis patients, reparative bone-like tissue formation in teeth needs to be taken into account prior to the initiation of dental treatment.
