One versus two appointment endodontic treatment on teeth with apical periodontitis
The microbiological purpose of endodontic treatment on tooth with apical periodontitis is reducing microbes to achieve periradicular tissue healing and prevent microbes recolonized. This is achieved by antimicrobial measures, including chemomechanical procedures and intracanal medication, with root...

Summary: | The microbiological purpose of endodontic treatment on tooth with apical periodontitis is reducing microbes to achieve periradicular tissue healing and prevent microbes recolonized. This is achieved by antimicrobial measures, including chemomechanical procedures and intracanal medication, with root canal obturation steps. One of the problem in endodontic is the planning consideration to treat with one or two visits. Does intra-appointment medication is an absolute measure to promote desinfection and treatment success. To provide a guideline about one or two visit endodontic treatment decision making for dental professionals. Root canal system on tooth with apical periodontitis treated in two visit endodontic and calcium hydroxide as the intra-appointment medication achieved better microbiological status than the one treated in one visit endodontic. |
