In intraoral panoramic radiography in the mandible was observed in mesial and distal radiolucent areas in the cervical region: 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37 which caused fracture at coronary level and confirmed the dental resorption. The extraction of the affected teeth was performed. Conclusions: External multiple idiopathic cervical root resorption is rare, asymptomatic, there are many causes that can lead toit; in the case studied caused rapid and aggressive involvement of multiple teeth and the extraction of them.
