The purpose of this retrospective longitudinal cohort study was to evaluate the outcome of nonsurgical root canal treatment (NSRCT), expressed as survival for both periapical health and retention of roots/teeth, as determined by clinical evaluation, periapical film/digital radiography (PFR/DPR), and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) over 10 years, to determine the prognostic factors that influenced successful treatment outcomes.
A total of 132 teeth (208 roots) with vital pulp received NSRCT at a university clinic. Eighteen factors (preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative) were documented from the dental records and radiographs. Periapical indices with scores ≥2 (PFR/DPR) and ≥1 (CBCT) indicated the presence of a periapical lesion. Data were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier test and the Cox proportional hazards regression model (P < .05).
The estimated 10-year overall survival rates for periapical health of roots/teeth were 89.4%/88.6% with PFR, 89.4%/89.3% with DPR, and 72.6%/69.7% with CBCT; the survival rate for root/tooth retention was 90.4%/91.6%.
The long-term outcome of NSRCT expressed as survival for periapical health was different with each radiographic method. Approximately more than 90% of the roots/teeth were retained for up to 10 years. The prognostic factors for periapical health were the disinfection of gutta-percha, missed canals, age, treatment sessions, and density of root filling (voids); the age and presence of a post were for root/tooth retention.
本回顾性纵向队列研究的目的是评估非手术根管治疗(NSRCT)的结果,以临床评估、根尖片/数字射线摄影(PFR/DPR)和锥形束 CT(CBCT)在 10 年内确定的根尖健康和保留根/牙的存活率来表示,并确定影响治疗结果的预后因素。
在一所大学诊所,对有活力牙髓的 132 颗牙(208 个根)进行了 NSRCT。从病历和射线照片中记录了 18 个因素(术前、术中、术后)。根尖指数得分≥2(PFR/DPR)和≥1(CBCT)表示存在根尖病变。使用 Kaplan-Meier 检验和 Cox 比例风险回归模型(P<.05)进行数据分析。
用 PFR 估计的 10 年根/牙的总体根尖健康存活率为 89.4%/88.6%,用 DPR 为 89.4%/89.3%,用 CBCT 为 72.6%/69.7%;根/牙保留率为 90.4%/91.6%。
以根尖健康存活率表示的 NSRCT 的长期结果因每种射线照相方法而异。大约 90%以上的根/牙在 10 年内保留。根尖健康的预后因素是牙胶的消毒、遗漏的根管、年龄、治疗次数和根管充填密度(空隙);年龄和桩的存在是根/牙保留的预后因素。
