      Abstract

      Investigation of resorption areas on the roots of three groups of teeth—118 healthy, 81 periodontally diseased, and 100 teeth from India—showed three times more root surface resorption on periodontally diseased teeth and five times more on teeth from India than on healthy teeth. Other types of cementum changes or loss were also noted.
