Odontoclasts attack external and internal to the [[:Category:Teeth - Anatomy & Physiology|tooth]]. Initially they start at the neck/cervical region and extend into [[Root - Anatomy & Physiology|tooth root]] they also enter the root via the apical foramen (stage 3 lesions).

Odontoclasts are normally only active in young animals to resorb the [[Tooth Development|deciduous teeth]] to make way for the [[Tooth Development#Permanent Tooth|permanent teeth]] so this is abnormal activation in adults.
