A 24-year-old patient sought endodontic treatment for swelling in the upper right canine and premolar region. Surprisingly her past dental history revelled orthodontic treatment five years back. It was a nonextraction orthodontic intervention. Total orthodontic treatment time was 23 months. Twenty-seven months after debonding, a swelling appeared at the buccocervial region of the right premolar which subsides on its own after few days. It used to keep appearing and disappearing on its own since then. Radiographic evaluation on cone-beam computed tomographic scans revealed a severe case of invasive cervical resorption on premolar region. Treatment proceeded with an endodontic approach, and the invasive site reinforced with a biodentine.
