No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Nonsurgical root canal retreatment may become essential when the initial endodontic treatment fails because of the persistent intracanal or extracanal infections.It has been stated that the one of the main cause of posttreatment disease is the persistent or reintroduced microorganism such as enterococcus faecalis. Supplementary disinfection techniques such as irrigation agitation methods can help elimination of bacteria from root canal systems.

The aim of this in vivo study was to compare the effect of passive ultrasonic irrigation, manual dynamic activation and photodynamic therapy in reducing bacterial load in endodontic retreatment cases with periradicular lesion by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)in a single visit root canal treatment.
