“…In the current study, the number of root canal-treated teeth was greater in the maxilla (n= 894, 48.0%) compared with the mandible (n= 647, 42.0%). This is consistent with other reports 2,5,7,11,16. The mandibular molar teeth were the most common root canal-treated teeth (23.2%), perhaps due to their early eruption and the anatomical complexity of the occlusal surfaces of their crowns.…”

“…The prevalence of root canal-treated teeth was significantly higher in females (8.54%) than in males (4.75%) in this study ( p =0.000), similar to Alrahabi and Younes 16. In the current study, the number of root canal-treated teeth was greater in the maxilla (n= 894, 48.0%) compared with the mandible (n= 647, 42.0%).…”

“…In the current study, 6.2% of evaluated teeth had AP, which is similar to values in previous studies. This is slightly higher than the value from a previously reported study of a Saudi population 16. Diabetes is a disorder of elderly subjects, and its prevalence in Saudi Arabia has been reported to increase with advancing age 12,27.…”

“…The sample size used in this study was very high (1,541 root canal-treated teeth of 25,028). In the present study, we evaluated more compared with study of did Alfouzan et al7 and Alrahabi and Younes 16. Thus, these data will provide adequate information to assess AP prevalence as well as the quality of endodontic treatment.…”

“…Published epidemiological studies related to smoking habits in Saudi Arabia, reviewed by Bassiony et al15 showed that the prevalence of smoking ranged from 2.4 - 52.3%, and it was higher in males than females. A review of endodontic literature revealed 2 studies that evaluated the quality of root canal treatment and the health of periradicular tissue of adult Saudi populations 7,16. The number of evaluated subjects was small and no consideration was given to the health and smoking habits of the subjects.…”

Objectives:To determine the health status of periradicular tissue and the quality of root canal fillings in an adult Saudi population attending dental clinics for the first time.Methods:This cross sectional study was conducted in the dental clinics at King Saud University, Riyadh and other dental centers (Jeddah, Najran, and Albaha City), Kingdom of Saudi Arabia between year 2010 and 2012. Good-quality panoramic radiographs of 926 Saudi subjects (540 males and 386 females)were analyzed based on the gender, age, health status, smoking habits, periapical status of the endodontically treated teeth, technical quality of the root canal fillings, and the presence or absence of coronal restoration. Data were calibrated and statistical analyses were performed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) version 17.Results:Of the 25,028 teeth examined, 1,556 teeth (6.2%) had apical periodontitis (AP). Male subjects aged over 55 years and females between 36 and 45 years had higher AP. A total of 36 diabetic and 87 smokers subjects had AP. The AP was more common in male diabetics than female (p=0.383), and in female smokers more than male (p=0.44). Only 42.2% of male and 57.7% of female teeth had adequate root canal treatment.Conclusions:Apical periodontitis was significantly related to diabetes, smoking, and inadequate endodontic treatment.
