Evaluation of the Effect of Different Irrigation Activation Methods During Endodontic Retreatment
Sponsor: Minia University
Summary
The persistent and secondary intraradicular infections are the primary causes of post-treatment disease following endodontic treatment of any tooth. When conventional root canal treatment fails, endodontic retreatment is often the preferred option, as it represents one of the most conservative approaches. Endodontic retreatment involves removing old root canal filling material followed by cleaning, shaping, and refilling the canals. It may be associated with postoperative pain due to periapical tissue irritation and apical extrusion of debris during instrumentation.
