Abstract

In Part I, which appeared in the last issue, the authors discussed the variations that exist in nonsurgical endodontic therapy with respect to methods of treatment and analyses of success and failure. They then reported on the materials and methods that were used in their clinical study of 458 root canals treated by the gutta-percha--eucapercha method and gave the criteria that were used for the radiographic analysis of success and failure in those cases. In Part II, the results of the one-year follow-up of those 458 root canals is presented. Tables and illustrations are used to substantiate the results.
