Table 1 Parameters for classification.
➢ | Tooth number |
➢ | Presence/absence of previous RCF |
➢ | Presence/absence of AP according to CBCTPAI score proposed by Estrela et al [] of tooth with previous RCF6 |
➢ | Presence/absence of broken instruments |
➢ | Extension of RCF (classified as: “short” when more than 2 mm short of the radiographic apex; “flush” when filled within 0–2 mm of the radiographic apex; and “long” when extended beyond the radiographic apex) |
➢ | Homogeneity of RCF (classified as: “homogeneous” when RCF presented no voids; ‘nonhomogeneous’ when RCF presented voids, poor density) |
➢ | Presence/absence of ledge formation |
➢ | Presence/absence of perforation |
➢ | Presence/absence of missed canals |
RCF – root canal filling; AP – apical periodontitis; CBCT PAI – cone beam computed tomography periapical index. |
