- INTRODUCTION: The aim was to compare the periapical status of root-filled teeth restored with resin composite, laboratory-fabricated crowns, or amalgam in a Swedish adult population. METHODS: The subjects consisted of 440 individuals from a randomly selected sample of 1000 adult residents of a Swedish county. The type, material, and quality of the restorations were recorded for all root-filled teeth by using clinical examination and intraoral clinical photographs. Periapical status, root-filling quality, and marginal bone loss were evaluated on panoramic radiographs. The association between periapical status and type, material, and quality of the restorations was analyzed by using the χ2 test and logistic regression. RESULTS: No difference in the frequency of apical periodontitis (AP) between teeth restored with resin composite, laboratory-fabricated crowns, or amalgam (29.7%, 26.2%, and 43.1%, respectively) of adequate quality was found. No association between AP and resin composite restorations was disclosed; however, there was an association between AP and inadequate root-filling quality and marginal bone loss >1/3 of the root length. CONCLUSIONS: The results did not indicate any association between AP and resin composite restorations. Neither the type nor the material of the restoration was of significance for periapical status as long as the quality was adequate.

Survival of Root-filled Teeth in Relation to Restoration and Tooth-group
- 2016

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Objectives: To compare the survival of teeth root-filled in Sweden in 2009 in relation to type of restoration and tooth-group.Methods: The database at the Swedish Social Insurance Agency containing information on treatments was used to identify all teeth in Sweden that were root-filled during 2009, by searching for the treatment codes corresponding to root-filling. The completed root-fillings could be linked to a specific tooth in a specific individual. Teeth registered as restored with a direct or indirect restoration within 6 months after completion of the root-filling were tagged and tracked until December 31st 2014. During this period, the treatment codes for extraction were registered for the identified root-filled teeth in order to construct Kaplan-Meier tooth survival analyses.Results: 248,299 teeth were registered as root-filled in Sweden in the year 2009. Of these 142,264 (57.3%) were restored with a direct restoration and 64,092 (25.8%) with an indirect restoration. Survival analysis disclosed that 5-6 years after root canal treatment 93.1% of the teeth with an indirect restoration had survived and 89.6% of the teeth with a direct restoration had survived. In the total material, irrespectively to any coronal restoration, premolars and upper anterior teeth had the highest survival (93.0% respectively 91.4%) and molars the lowest survival (87.6%). The same pattern was observed in sub-group analysis in the group of root-filled teeth with direct restorations. In the group with root-filled teeth with indirect restorations another pattern was observed; upper anterior teeth (92.6%) had a relatively lower survival, equivalent to those of molar teeth (92.6%).Conclusions: 5-6 year survival of root-filled teeth in Sweden were higher in the group with indirect restorations compared to the group with direct restoration. Root-filled upper incisors had an overall high survival, though for root-filled upper anterior teeth with indirect restorations the survival was relatively low.

- © 2016 American Association of Endodontists. Introduction The aim was to assess survival in the Swedish population of teeth treated by nonsurgical root canal treatment during 2009. Methods Data from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier analysis to assess cumulative tooth survival during a period of 5-6 years of all teeth that were root-filled during 2009. Results In 2009, 248,299 teeth were reported as root-filled. The average age of the patients at the time of the root filling was 55 years (range, 20-102 years). The teeth most frequently root-filled were the maxillary and mandibular first molars. During the 5- to 6-year period 25,228 of the root-filled teeth (10.2%) were reported to have been extracted; thus 223,071 teeth (89.8%) survived. Tooth survival was highest in the youngest age group (93.2%). The highest survival (93.0%) was for the mandibular premolars, and the lowest (87.5%) was for the mandibular molars. Teeth restored with indirect restorations within 6 months of the root filling had higher survival rates (93.1%) than those restored with a direct filling (89.6%). Conclusions In the adult population of Sweden, teeth that are root-filled by general practitioners under the tax-funded Swedish Social Insurance Agency have a 5- to 6-year survival rate of approximately 90%.
