Summary

Ph.D project: Periapical bone healing after apicectomy with and without retrograde root filling.

The aim of this study is to assess periapical bone healing after apicectomy without a filling and apicectomy combined with a retrograde filling material, MTA. Further, we will estimate risk factors in non-healing cases.

Study hypothesis: There is no difference in treatment outcome between:

Periapical bone healing after apicectomy with retrograde root filling and Periapical bone healing after apicectomy without retrograde root filling

Conditions

  • Stomatognathic Disease
  • Mouth Disease
  • Periapical Disease
  • Alveolar Bone Loss

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA)

retrograde rootfilling with MTA or smoothening of the orthograde root-filling, gutta-percha
