Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between prognosis and various factors influencing repair by using clinical and roentgenographic follow-up evaluations of endodontically treated teeth. There was no statistically significant difference between success of repair in teeth yielding positive canal cultures at the time of filling and those yielding negative cultures. Underfilled root canals were highly successful. Factors influencing failure included deep periodontal pockets, apical rarefactions, occlusal trauma, and teeth with only one or no adjacent teeth.
