Who told you to do bridge to stop resorption? As current status- RCT might help prevent resorption

Root resorption can happen because of multiple reasons. The most important cause is tooth trauma caused because of excessive tooth movements or any hit to your front teeth. The body tries to remove the deceased part of the tooth. The tentative treatment is root canal, which will stop the resorption.
