Introduction: Upcoming research necessitates a quantitative assessment of root resorption with trends pointing towards increased evidence of iatrogenic root resorption. Aims: This questionnaire survey aimed to assess the knowledge and working principles on the latest protocols of root resorption among orthodontists and general dentists Methodology: A total of 11 questions on root resorption were circulated through Google Forms. The questions evaluated participant__ampersandsignrsquo;s knowledge and grasp on the topic of root resorption along with awareness about the latest protocols for management. 188 responses were recorded of which 73 were orthodontists and 115 were general dentists. Results: Overwhelming majority noted root resorption with 80% of participants having observed root resorption at some point in time. Nearly 55% believe root resorption can be prevented from further progression if treated at the right time (p__ampersandsignlt;0.05). 79% believe diagnosing through IOPAs can provide adequate information (p__ampersandsignlt;0.05). Diagnosing root resorption through other modalities is lukewarm with 42% responding positively towards usage of CBCTs, histological sections (p__ampersandsignlt;0.05) Conclusion: Root resorption is a fairly common phenomenon with at least 70% of the participants concluding that they have observed it in practice and during orthodontic treatment. It is necessary to assess OIRR quantitatively to determine optimal force levels in different clinical scenarios. Despite its value, CBCT is not an ideal modality for identifying root resorption considering exposure to the patient and diagnostic ability. It would be prudent to utilize this modality in cases with existing lesions.
