Background:
Endodontic retreatment is crucial for preserving dental health but is influenced by various factors.
Objective:
This research aimed to assess factors affecting the success of endodontic retreatment procedures.
Methods:
A retrospective analysis was conducted on 250 cases of endodontic retreatment. Demographic and clinical data were collected, and treatment success was defined based on predetermined criteria. Statistical analysis was performed to evaluate associations between treatment factors and retreatment outcomes.
Results:
The overall success rate was 75%. Rotary instrumentation, gutta-percha obturation, and use of intracanal medication were significantly associated with higher retreatment success rates (P < 0.05).
Conclusion:
Factors such as instrumentation type, obturation material, and intracanal medication significantly influence endodontic retreatment success. Understanding and optimizing these factors are crucial for improving treatment outcomes and patient satisfaction.
