Summary

Till date, no study has systematically evaluated the role of a single variable on success of endodontic retreatment. While the evaluation of a single factor as the primary objective in a study is a difficult task, it unarguably provides more valuable information regarding the influence of that variable on outcome. The clinical studies comparing the use of Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and Chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX) in retreatment cases have evaluated only the antibacterial effectiveness and there is no clinical study comparing their effect on the clinical outcome in retreatment cases. And also, no study has compared the use of irrigant as single variable in the primary objective on success of retreatment cases. The conclusions drawn from such "surrogate measures" must be interpreted and applied in clinical settings with caution. Since there is no standardised irrigation treatment protocol for secondary root canal treatment, the present study is being conducted to evaluate the effect of 5% NaOCl with 17% Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and 2% CHX with 10% citric acid (CA) on outcome, when used as irrigants during the chemomechanical preparation in retreatment cases.
