2. 6. Coronal restoration in root-filled and non root-filled teeth : studies on periapical status, tooth survival, subsequent treatments and treatment decisions

   Author : Victoria Dawson; Malmö universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Endodontics; Coronal restoration; Indirect restoration; Direct restoration; Root canal treatment; Decision process; Apical periodontitis; Qualitative Content Analysis;

   Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to study the following aspects ofdirect and indirect coronal restoration, primarily of root-filled teeth, withspecial reference to:• periapical health• the natural course of root-filled teeth, particularly furtherclinical intervention• the dentist´s decision-making process for root-filled teeth.The aims of coronal restoration are to restore the function and aestheticsof the tooth, with a tight marginal seal as protection from microbialleakage.

4. 7. Epidemiological Aspects on Apical Periodontitis. Studies based on the Prospective Population Study of Women in Göteborg and the Population Study on Oral Health in Jönköping, Sweden

   Author : Fredrik Frisk; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Apical periodontitis; Coronary heart disease; Cross-sectional; Endodontics; Epidemiology; Health; Longitudinal; Root filling; Socio-economic status; Treatment quality; Women;

   Abstract : The objectives of this thesis were to describe endodontic status in Swedish populations, to study clinical and socio-economic risk factors for apical periodontitis (AP) and to explore a possible association between AP and coronary heart disease (CHD). In papers I, III and IV the Prospective Study of Women in G?teborg (PSWG) was used. READ MORE

5. 8. Factors associated with healing of periradicular lesions

   Author : John Danin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Periradicular pathosis; cytokine; IL- Ira; IL-6; TGF-beta1; root canal treatment; endodontic retreatment; root- end surgery; antibiotic; linezolid; refractory periapical lesions.;

   Abstract : Healing of periradicular lesions is a complex process. This thesis addressed some factors of importance to the outcome, namely treatment options and host response in cases of refractory lesions, levels of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the inflammatory lesions and the response of the cytokines to preoperative administration of antibiotics.

6. 9. On bacteria Persisting Root Canal Treament. Identification and potential mechanisms of resistance to antimicrobial measures

   Author : Luis Chávez de Paz; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Anti-microbial treatment of infected root canals using mechanical instrumentation and chemicals for disinfection does not always lead to complete bacterial elimination and treatment failure may therefore result. As certain bacteria appear more resilient to endodontic treatment than others, the present thesis addresses the species that can most frequently be isolated after treatment and explores mechanisms, which could potentially afford these organisms resistance to anti-microbial treatment measures.

7. 10. On healing after periapical surgery and different retrograde root-filling materials. A clinical and histological study

   Author : Dan-Åke Wälivaara; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : periapical surgery; ultrasonic preparation; IRM; thermoplasticized gutta-percha; Super-EBA; mineral trioxide aggregate; root-filling status; lesion size; lesion type;

   Abstract : Aims: The outcome from conventional endodontic therapy does not always result in a healing of the periapical area, thus leaving a remaining lesion with or without symptoms. The primary treatment alternative is a revision of the orthograde root-filling if applicable. A second treatment alternative might be a periapical surgery procedure. READ MORE
