Factors affecting the long-term results of endodontic treatment

TL;DR: The predictability from clinical and radiographic signs of the treatment-outcome in individual cases with preoperative periapical lesions cases was found to be low and factors which were not measured or identified may be critical to the outcome of endodontic treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbiologic analysis of teeth with failed endodontic treatment and the outcome of conservative re-treatment

TL;DR: The microbial flora in canals after failed endodontic therapy differed markedly from the flora in untreated teeth, and infection at the time of root filling and size of the periapical lesion had a negative influence on the prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathogenesis of Apical Periodontitis and the Causes of Endodontic Failures

TL;DR: This communication is meant to provide a comprehensive overview of the etio-pathogenesis of apical periodontitis and the causes of failed endodontic treatments that can be visualized in radiographs as asymptomatic post-treatment periapical radiolucencies.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the causes of persistent apical periodontitis: a review.

TL;DR: This article provides a comprehensive overview of the causative factors of non-resolving periapical lesions that are seen as asymptomatic radiolucencies post-treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endodontic leakage studies reconsidered. Part I. Methodology, application and relevance.

TL;DR: It seems that more research should be done on leakage study methodology, instead of continuing to evaluate the sealing ability of different materials and techniques by methods that may give little relevant information.

Evaluation of endodontic treatment of teeth with apical periodontitis

TL;DR: In Sweden the dentists devote around 10X of their total time to treatApical periodontitis, an acute or chronic inflamination around the apex of the tooth, caused by bacteria in the root canal.
Journal ArticleDOI

The apical level of root fillings.

TL;DR: Roots from three-rooted teeth had been filled closer to the radiographic apex by the endodontist than by undergraduates, and a higher relative number of class C fillings was observed for undergraduates than for the endODontist, while the opposite observation was made for class B cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Number of teeth and tooth loss of former dental school patients. Follow-up study after 10-17 years.

TL;DR: Persons who had received endodontic and other treatment at the School of Dentistry in Bergen in the 1960s were invited to attend an examination in 1980, some 10-17 years after their first course of treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence and distribution of root‐filled teeth in former dental school patients: follow‐up after 10–17 years

TL;DR: An age-related difference in survival of root-filled teeth is considered to be caused by non-endodontic factors.
