Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the outcomes
of cases completed without retrograde filling following root end resection
made for periapical pathology.
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study. The primary predictor
variables included gender, age (>45 vs <45 years), and localization (maxilla,
mandible, anterior, and posterior). The primary outcome variable was
radiological assessment (success vs failure). Data were analyzed by chisquare
test and descriptive statistics (p<0.05).
Results: A total of 56 (21 males and 35 females) patients were included
in the study. Overall, 37 (66%) patients were successful, whereas 19 (34%)
failed. Gender, age, and localization did not significantly affect the outcomes.
There were significantly less successful outcomes in the posterior
dentition (p<0.05).
Conclusion: It cannot be reported that retrograde filling after root end resection
is unnecessary; however, successful outcomes might be obtained
without retrograde filling.
