“…However, the degree of inflammation was extremely mild and the bone resorption was not significantly different among the SB, EBA, and MTA groups. As Rubinstein et al 31) reported long-term success when using reinforced zinc oxide eugenol cement as the root-end filling material, a few inflammatory cells facing reinforced zinc oxide eugenol cement might be clinically acceptable 32) . In contrast, reinforced zinc oxide eugenol cement has been reported to have inadequate long-term sealing ability 6,10) .…”

This study evaluated apical periodontal healing after root-end sealing using 4-META/MMA-TBB resin (SB), and root-end filling using reinforced zinc oxide eugenol cement (EBA) or mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) when root canal infection persisted. Apical periodontitis was induced in mandibular premolars of beagles by contaminating the root canals with dental plaque. After 1 month, in the SB group, SB was applied to the resected surface following apicoectomy. In the EBA and MTA groups, a root-end cavity was prepared and filled with EBA or MTA. In the control group, the root-end was not filled. Fourteen weeks after surgery, histological and radiographic analyses in a beagle model were performed. The bone defect area in the SB, EBA and MTA groups was significantly smaller than that in the control group. The result indicated that root-end sealing using SB and root-end filling using EBA or MTA are significantly better than control.

“…[1][2][3][4] Recently, at our institution, Kim et al reported a 91.5% overall success rate in 188 apicoectomy with retrofilling cases. 5 They considered the cases successful when there was the absence of clinical signs and/or symptoms and radiographic evidence of complete or incomplete healing.…”

Objectives: This study was aimed to examine the patients'perception and satisfaction with the results of endodontic microsurgery which was apicoectomy with retrofilling. Materials and Methods: A questionnaire was given to 109 patients, who were recalled after a minimum of 3 months upon endodontic microsurgery in the Department of Conservative Dentistry, Yonsei University. A contingency table and correlation analysis were used to determine if there were any correlations between age/gender and the patients'responses (p = 0.05).Results: Approximately 60% of respondents answered they had never heard of surgical endodontic procedures. 63.3% of respondents chose the surgical option because they wanted to keep their natural teeth. If the patient required the same procedure on another tooth later, 100 out of 109 respondents answered they would choose microsurgery instead of extraction. Most patients (82.57%) appeared to be satisfied with the surgical procedure. Conclusions: Endodontic microsurgery consisting of apicoectomy and retrofilling seems to appeal to majority of patients as a satisfactory and valuable treatment choice.

“…Another study points to an even greater discrepancy of 44.2%-60% for the traditional method and 91.1% for microsurgical techniques. [37,38].…”
