Donald A. Vena,Damon Collie,Hongyu Wu,Jennifer L. Gibbs,Hillary L. Broder,Frederick A. Curro,Van P. Thompson,Ronald G. Craig +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the frequency of persistent pain after primary root canal therapy and its impact on the patient's perceived oral health-related quality of life was determined in a practice-based research network.
Journal ArticleDOI
A survey of the incidence of single-visit endodontics.
TL;DR: This survey was conducted to obtain answers to some basic questions regarding the timing of root canal obturation and found that 34.2% of the responding endodontists indicated that their patients had experienced some trouble after root canal Obturation at the first visit.

Internal resorption treated with mineral trioxide aggregate in a primary molar tooth: 18-month follow-up.
Şaziye Sari,Deniz Sönmez +1 more
TL;DR: It can be concluded that MTA may be a suitable material for use in the treatment of internal resorption in the coronal third of the root canal in primary teeth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Remaining dentin/cementum thickness after hand or ultrasonic instrumentation.
TL;DR: A quantitative study was undertaken to measure remaining dentin/cementum thickness after using step-down, step-back hand instrumentation or ultrasonically energized instrumentation techniques, and both techniques came dangerously close to creating stripping and perforations in a high percentage of cases.
