- Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence and quality of the endodontic treatment, potential therapeutic stage prior to prosthodontics. The objective of this research was to make a comprehensive evaluation regarding dental status. In order to achieve this purpose, we used 163 orthopantomographies with at least one root canal filling, selected according to their image quality. The teeth with root canal fillings were measured using specific landmarks for the determination of ideal and real working length. The statistical significance value was set at p ⩽ 0.05. The results showed an increase ratio of correct canal fillings on lower canines. The lowest percentages of successful endodontic treatments were depicted on upper premolars, upper molars and lower molars. The present study represents a valuable complementary assessment of prevalence and quality of endodontic treatments in a mixed group of population of all ages.
