    Summary

    Comparing two apicectomy series revealed similar outcomes, highlighting the critical role of thorough pre-operative endodontic treatment and non-absorbable canal materials for successful apical surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Endodontics
    • Oral Surgery

    Background:

    • Apicectomy is a surgical procedure to treat persistent periapical inflammation.
    • Long-term outcomes of apicectomy require evaluation to refine surgical protocols.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of two distinct series of apicectomies performed decades apart.
    • To identify key factors contributing to the long-term success of apicectomy.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective comparison of clinical assessments and radiographic findings.
    • Two patient series from 1966-1969 and 1978-1982 were analyzed.
    • Follow-up examinations were conducted to evaluate outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • Both apicectomy series demonstrated comparable success rates.
    • Meticulous pre-operative endodontic treatment was a significant factor in positive outcomes.
    • The use of non-absorbable canal filling materials correlated with successful results.

    Conclusions:

    • The fundamental principles of successful apicectomy have remained consistent over time.
    • Scrupulous endodontic preparation and precise surgical technique are paramount for optimal periapical healing.
    • Non-absorbable canal materials contribute to predictable and lasting surgical success.
