Success rate for root fillings in young patients. A retrospective analysis of treated cases

Radiographic Parameters of Quality of Root Canal Fillings and Periapical Status: A Retrospective Cohort Study

“…Thus, preoperative periapical radiolucency was the main risk factor for lesions in the follow-up period (7,45,46). In the present study, a bivariate analysis revealed that preoperative periapical lesions, quality of root canal filling and taper were significantly related to the postoperative periapical status.…”

Periapical health related to the quality of coronal restorations and root fillings

“…1990, Eriksen 1991, Friedman 1998) have reported the impact of the quality of the root‐canal filling on the prognosis of root‐canal treatment. In addition, several authors have described the importance of apical leakage on the treatment outcome of root‐canal treatment (Strindberg 1956, Schilder 1967, Harty et al . 1970, Adenubi & Rule 1976, Ingle et al .…”

Effect of access cavity location and design on degree and distribution of instrumented root canal surface in maxillary anterior teeth

“…Interestingly, the success rates for anterior teeth in two studies where water or saline alone were used for irrigation were similar if not higher than other studies, namely 84% and 90% (Harty et al . 1970, Adenubi & Rule 1976). Both of these studies from the same Institute had advocates of straight‐line access cavities.…”
