How many people develop internal resorption of teeth and who are they?

Internal resorption of teeth is relatively rare, with an estimated prevalence of around 0.5% to 5% of the general population. It can occur in individuals of any age, but it is most commonly observed in young adults and adolescents, often as a result of trauma, inflammation, or pulpitis. Both genders can be affected, although some studies suggest a slight male predominance. Regular dental check-ups can help in early detection and management of this condition.
