Abstract：AIM:To investigate the characteristics and treatment methods of pre-eruptive intracoronal ab-sorption. METHODS:A literature research of case reports and epidemiological investigations about pre-eruptive intra-coronal absorption was done in Pubmed database, using the key words of preeruptive( pre eruptive) intracoronal radi-olucency,preeruptive(pre eruptive) intracoronal defect,preeruptive(pre eruptive) intracoronal lesion,preeruptive(pre eruptive) intracoronal caries,and preeruptive( pre eruptive) intracoronal resorption. RESULTS:A total of 34 case re-ports (1978~2013) and 6 articles of epidemiological investigation were found. The cases were usually found during routine radiographic examinations of children at the age of 6~20 years old with otherwise good oral health. Few cases of toothache had been reported. In the 43 cases, 44. 19% were found in the second permanent molar, followed by the first permanent molar (18. 60%) and the second permanent molar and canine (13. 95%), mostly in the lower jaw (86. 05%). Most of the cases were clinically treated. CONCLUSION:In the mixed dentition stage, panoramic radi-ograph should be taken to screen pr-eruptive intracoronal absorption. Early detection and early treatment is important.
