Summary

Root canal treatment (RCT) consists in eliminating infected and / or inflammatory tissues inside the root canal system of the tooth by a chemo-mechanical preparation and then filling the latter in a three-dimensional, bacteriostatic and durable way to allow healing. This treatment is commonly carried out and can sometimes be long and tedious, as for example on molars with several roots.

According to numerous studies, patients consider endodontic treatments as one of the most stress-inducing dental procedures. Another study also reports satisfaction during root canal treatment in public health service. There is a paucity in literature about patients'experience of endodontic treatment when they are carried out by dental students.

The main objective of this study is to investigate patients' experience of root canal treatment in Brest dental university hospital through a qualitative methodology, with individual interviews, a verbatim transcription, followed by a qualitative analysis . This type of research can enable to keep a broad approach of patients' experience and to stay faithful to it.
