{"title":"Global prevalence of pre eruptive intracoronal resorption (PEIR) of teeth: a systematic review of literature.","authors":"Deepa Gurunathan, Deepak Pandiar, Reshma Poothakulath Krishnan","doi":"10.1007/s40368-024-00987-3","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s40368-024-00987-3","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Aim: </strong>Pre-eruptive intracoronal resorption (PIER) defects constitute an important part of anomalies associated with unerupted teeth. However, these defects are usually overlooked by clinicians whilst interpreting radiographs.

The review was registered in Prospero (CRD42024501668). The risk of bias was analysed for each study using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale for cross-sectional studies.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>In total 18 studies were included in the present systematic review.

First premolars were most frequently affected in the mandibular arch, whilst canines were affected most in the maxillary arch.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Within the limits of the review, we presented for the first time the global prevalence of PEIR. The condition may be overlooked and could lead to potential complications, thus it is essential to promptly diagnose these defects, thus preventing any further complications.
