This study presents a histological analysis through optical microscopy of primary teeth with physiological and pathological resorptions to outline the histological profile of resorptions. Sixty teeth were examined: 19 primary teeth with physiological resorption and 41 primary teeth with pathological resorption. To analyze the histological conditions of the pulp, periradicular tissue, and the resorption areas, and to investigate the presence, intensity, and location of bacteria, slides were prepared using the hematoxylin-eosin and the Brown-Brenn techniques. For the teeth with physiological resorption, normal pulps and no evidence of bacteria were found. For the teeth with pathological resorption, pulpal alterations, atypical resorption, and bacteria were observed.
