Resumo
A reabsorção cervical externa (RCE) é uma forma relativamente rara, mas muito agressiva, de destruição do tecido dentário. Apesar dos casos relatados ao longo de décadas e dos estudos clínicos que os investigaram, a sua etiologia ainda não é clara.
Este trabalho tem como objetivo identificar potenciais fatores predisponentes relacionados ao desenvolvimento de reabsorções cervicais externas, para o que foi realizada uma ampla revisão da literatura narrativa disponível.
Com base na evidência disponível, conclui-se que os RCE são processos patológicos de causa multifatorial e a combinação de fatores predisponentes parece aumentar a possibilidade de desenvolvimento destes processos. Trauma dentário, movimentações ortodônticas e tratamentos de clareamento interno com agentes em altas concentrações combinados com aplicação de calor e preparo incorreto da câmara, parecem ser os fatores mais frequentemente relacionados ao desenvolvimento de RCE.
