Electron microscopy was used to assess degenerative nerve alterations in resorbing deciduous incisors of the cat. Intradental nerve structural changes are described when minimal signs of root resorption are present. Intradental nerves in resorbing deciduous incisors are compared with those of fully developed deciduous incisors.
