Outcome of Non-surgical Endodontic Treatment Master of Science, 2001 Dr. Sarah Abitbol Graduate Department of Dentistry University of Toronto ABSTRACT This historical cohort study examined the outcome of non-surgical endodontic treatment and the influence of various factors on the outcome. Patients treated by Graduate Endodontics students were re-examined afier 4 to 6 years by an independent investigator. Outcome criteria - were dichotomous the pdradicular tissues were classified as "healed" or "diseased". For Initial Treatment, 8 1% of the teeth wefe healed. The healing rate was 18% higher for teeth without pre-operative Apical Periodontitis than those with Apical Periodontitis @ < 0.01). For Retreatment, 7 1 % of the teeth were healed. The healing rate for teeth with pre-operative perforation was 53% lower than for al1 othcr teeth (p 4 0.001 ). In conclusion, Apical Periodontitis was the major factor that influenced the outcome of Initial Treatment, while a pre-operative perforation was the major factor that influenced the outcome of Retreatment. Acknowledgments The completion of this thesis was made possible with the contribution of a nurnber of individuals. 1 would like to thank my supervisors, Dr. Shimon Friedman and Dr. Herenia P. Lawrence for their support and guidance during the elaboration of this project. 1 especially I indebted to Dr. S. Friedman; first, for giving me the opportunity to participate in this remarkable research and second, for the many hours spent reviewing this thesis. His vast knowledge in the field of endodontics and unreserved acadernic dedication makes him a great supervisor to work with. 1 express my appreciation to Dr. H.P. Lawrence for her patience and good cheer in continually impariing her knowledge with me, and for always being available and easily approachable. 1 would like to thank my cornmittee member Dr. Chris McCulloch for his positive insight and comments throughout the research. 1 own a very special acknowledpent to two people who, although not directly involved - in this thesis, volunteered to help me with it Dr. Calvin Tomeck, for reading and correcting it, and Dr. Thuan Dao, for her attention and suggestions. I am especially gratefbl to Ms. Annemarie Polis for her technical support during the recording of the data and her exnotional support throughout this research project and the writing of the thesis. Last, but not least, I am etemally gratefûl to al1 the mernbers of my family who have - supported me throughout the pursuit of my longtime dream to become a well-trained and scientif icall y sound Endodontist. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page .. .......................................................................................................................
