Comparison of the success of root canal therapy in HIV/AIDS patients and non-infected controls

Bradley S Alley et al. Gen Dent. 2008 Mar-Apr.

Abstract

This study compared the rate of successful endodontic treatments between two cohorts of patients with similar teeth, one group with HIV/AIDS and one without. A retrospective chart review was performed on two cohorts, with 50 teeth in each cohort. There was no statistically significant difference in endodontic success between the two groups. The failure groups were small, with no significant trends.
