Abstract
Objective To observe long-term effect and evaluate clinical feasibility of one-visit root canal therapy in chronic apical periodontitis.Methods 228 molars with chronic apical periodontitis were selected.Group Ⅰ (120 molars) was treated by one-visit root canal therapy,while group Ⅱ (108 molars) was treated with multi-visit root canal therapy.Two groups both took crown down root canal preparation method,root canals irrigated with 0.3% sodium hypochlorite and 17% EDTA and obturated by means of lateral condensation technique.A comparison of clinical effect was done between two groups after 2 years.Result The cure rate of group Ⅰ was 88.79% (95/120),while that of group Ⅱ was 92.08% (93/108),without statistical difference between two groups (x 2 =0.649,P > 0.05).Conclusion There was no difference in long-term treatment effect between two kinds of treatment methods. Key words: Chronic apical periodontitis; One-visit root canal therapy; Long-term effect
