“…The prevalence of chronic apical periodontitis (34.81%) agreed with studies conducted in other populations in Buenos Aires in Argentina 13 , Bucaramanga and Floridablanca in Colômbia 14 , and Barcelona in Spain 15 , where it ranged 27%to 49%. However, these results were higher than those reported in other surveys conducted in English 16 (4.1%), Scottish 17 (5.8%) and Kosovan 18 (12.3%) populations.…”

Prevalence of endodontic diseases: an epidemiological evaluation in a Brazilian subpopulation

Aim: To determine the prevalence of pulp and periradicular diseases in a Brazilian subpopulation, correlating the prevalence with sex, age and most affected teeth. Methods: Data collected from medical records of patients treated at the Clinic of Specialization in Endodontics of the Federal University of Pernambuco between 2003 and 2010. The following variables were recorded for each patient: sex, age, affected teeth and diagnosed endodontic disease. Using Pearson's chi-square and Fisher's exact tests, the collected data analysis was set at a 5% significance level. Results: From all the treated teeth, 57% were diagnosed with pulp diseases, with the symptomatic irreversible pulpitis being the most prevalent (46.3%), while among the diagnosed periradicular diseases (43%), chronic apical periodontitis was the most prevalent (81%). Pulp diseases were detected in men and women in an unequal mode (p=0.008). Subjects under 40 years old had higher prevalence of pulp disease (p=0.286), and patients over 50 years were most affected by periradicular diseases (p=0.439). Maxillary incisors and mandibular first molars were the most affected teeth by endodontic diseases. Conclusions: In the evaluated subpopulation, the endodontic diseases were more prevalent in the maxillary incisive, affected indiscriminately individuals of different age groups and chronic apical periodontitis was the most prevalent diagnosed disease.

“…Similar studies have confirmed the validity of these results by correlating the quality of both root canal filling and coronal restoration to the resolution of apical periodontitis in various populations and with different results (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19).…”

“…A cone-beam tomography analysis showed that 23.04% of teeth are inadequately restored, and the risk of an apical lesion increases 4.38 times (17) . A study conducted by Moreno et al (18) showed that 51% of the teeth treated had no periradicular pathologies, and only 33% were considered properly restored.…”

Background: Clinical epidemiological studies do not allow us to know the status of pulp and periapical disease of endodontic origin, information that can be obtained analyzing panoramic radiographs, so as to provide prevention and counseling services in oral health. Objective: To determine the frequency and characteristics of endodontic findings in digital panoramic radiographs. Methods: We analyzed 1,500 digital panoramic radiographs of patients over 18. The following information was recorded: number of teeth in the mouth,
