Summary

Objectives: Evaluation of endodontic treatment success is largely based on radiographical assessment of anatomical and treatment-related parameters of teeth with apical periodontitis (AP). This study aimed to analyse 2-year treatment outcomes of teeth with AP based on radiographical changes, and to evaluate prognostic validity of Periapical and Endodontic Status Scale (PESS).

Materials and Methods: 128 patients (176 teeth) were examined by cone-beam computed tomography at baseline and in 24 months after endodontic treatment. Treatment outcome was evaluated using estimates of periapical radiolucencies in size, relation with anatomical structures and location. Strength of associations between these and treatment-related parameters was tested by logistic regression analysis. Predictive validity of PESS was verified by estimating association between treatment risk groups defined at baseline and negative outcome.
