“…The main cause of failure is persistent, or recurrent microbial infection 2,3) . Nonsurgical retreatment is usually the preferred option for teeth in which endodontic treatment has failed as there is a greater opportunity to eradicate any intra-radicular source of infection compared with a surgical approach 4) .…”

“…[5] To increase the chances of a favorable outcome of root canal treatment, the infection within the root canal system should be eradicated effectively before obturation. [6] A periradicular lesion creates a barrier within the body which prevents further spread of microorganisms.…”

“…Nonsurgical endodontic retreatment is the first choice for resolving endodontic failures caused primarily by persistent root infections. [9][10][11][12] However, the action of the drills used to remove the root filling material produces a new smear layer rich in sealer and guttapercha remnants plasticized by the friction heat, 13 that mixed with inorganic components, can occlude dentinal tubules. 14 Furthermore, solvents are often used as an aid for removing gutta-percha 15 and result in the deposition of a thin layer of gutta-percha on root canal walls i.e., difficult both to detect and remove.…”
