ABSTRACT
Scleroderma is a chronic connective tissue disease generally classified as an autoimmune rheumatic disease. Symptoms may include thickening of the skin, calcifications, Raynaud syndrome, and esophageal problems. Invasive cervical resorption is an aggressive form of external resorption localized in the cervical part of the tooth. Its etiology remains uncertain. This case report describes invasive cervical resorption affecting 4 teeth in a 44-year-old woman with scleroderma and speculates on the possible relationships between these disease entities.
