Tooth resorption in dogs We look for tooth resorption in every feline (cat) patient because it is expected however in dogs tooth resorption is a surprise because it is much less common. Tooth resorption is a lesion found in the crown, root or in both the crown and the root. Tooth resorption may start as internal or as external resorption. How is tooth resorption diagnosed? Tooth resorption may result in tooth fracture and be clearly visable. Tooth resorption may be completely hidden (below the gumline) and unsuspected. Dental radiographs with periodontal probing are very helpful in establishing the diagnosis of tooth resorption.  Tooth resorption of the left second upper premolar tooth.
