Teeth

The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...

The endodontic recall rate was 49%, with females and older patients (41-80) returning more often. Pulp status and previous root canal treatment also influenced patient recall rates.

Area of Science:

  • Endodontology
  • Dental Public Health

Background:

  • Effective patient recall is crucial for monitoring endodontic treatment outcomes.
  • Understanding factors influencing recall rates can optimize follow-up strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the recall rate in an endodontic practice.
  • To evaluate patient demographics and clinical variables affecting recall return.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 7105 patient records treated between 1975 and 1998.
  • Analysis of variables including age, gender, pulp status, pain, trauma history, and prior root canal treatment.
  • Statistical analysis using odds ratio and chi-square tests.

Main Results:

  • Overall recall rate was 49% for 5641 patients completing treatment.

Scanning Electron Microscopic Evaluation of Surface Defects of Remover Retreatment File After Single and Multiple Uses

  • Females (52%) returned more frequently than males (44%).
  • Pulp necrosis or previous root filling increased recall; irreversible pulpitis decreased it. Older patients (41-80) had higher recall rates than younger patients (6-40).

    • Conclusions:

    • Patient age, gender, and pulp status significantly impact endodontic recall rates.
    • Recall rates can be influenced by specific clinical diagnoses and patient demographics.
    • A 49% recall rate was observed after a minimum of 6 months post-treatment.
