Study Notes
- Endodontic Treatment Outcomes study in USA: 30-38% of primary root canal treatments had successful outcomes. (J Endod. 2004)
- Conditions improving primary root canal treatment outcomes:
- No pre-operative periapical radiolucency
- No root filling voids
- Root filling extending 2mm within radiographic apex
- Satisfactory coronal restoration
- Systematic review of tooth survival after non-surgical root canal treatment: 86-93% survival over 2-10 years. (International Endod J. 2010)
- Significant prognostic factors for tooth survival after RCT:
- Crown restoration
- Tooth with mesial and distal proximal contacts
- Tooth not functioning as abutment
- Non-molar teeth
- Crown preparation poses risk to pulp health due to desiccation and frictional heat. (International Endod J. 2015)
- Prospective study: 9% of teeth with pre-existing restorations or caries developed pulp necrosis. (International Endod J. 2015)
- Retrospective study: 15-year survival rates for pulp vitality were 81.2% (crowns) and 66.2% (bridges). (International Endod J. 2005)
- Nine percent of teeth with large restorations developed pulp necrosis. (J Endod 2023)
- Eighty-five percent endodontically treated teeth survived eight years with crown placement within 4 months. (J Endod 2016)
- Teeth with crown placement after four months of RCT had a higher risk of extraction. (J Endod 2016)
- Rubber dam use during post placement increases success rate of RCT-treated teeth. (J Endod 2013)
- Excessive pulpal floor removal or perforation during post preparation negatively impacts endodontically treated tooth survival. (J Endod 2013)
