Testing endodontic retreatment in one versus two visits
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares doing tooth root-canal retreatment in one visit versus two visits. It’s meant to see which approach leads to better outcomes for teeth with infection at the root tip (apical periodontitis).
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Your tooth must have apical periodontitis, meaning an infection/inflammation around the root tip.
- The tooth must be single-root or two-root (single or bi-radicular) for treatment here.

This study tests two different medications placed inside a tooth during a second root canal treatment (retreatment) to see which one causes less pain afterward. It aims to help people who need another root canal procedure feel more comfortable.
This study compares how well initial root canal treatments and repeat root canals work over time using clinical exams and X-rays. It aims to see which approach leads to better healing and pain relief for patients with tooth infections or damage.
This study compares whether treating an infected, dead tooth in one visit works as well as using two visits. It may help you and your dentist choose the simplest schedule while still clearing infection and supporting healing.
This trial compares two medications placed inside the tooth during a repeat root canal to treat infection at the root tip. It aims to find which one better fights bacteria and helps the tooth heal.
This study compares how much pain you feel and changes in a pain-related enzyme when root canal treatment is done in one visit instead of two. It aims to find which approach is more comfortable for people with an infected tooth.
This study tests two different ways to do a root canal on a tooth with an infection at the tip of the root. It aims to find which method causes less pain after the procedure.
