On Previously Root Canal-treated Patients Using an AI Program, Detect the Accuracy of it in the Detection of Root Canal Obturation Quality on CBCT Compared With Conventional PA Radiography, e.g., Voids, Length of Obturation, and Density, and Then do Retreatment if Any Failure is Recorded.

Summary

aims to evaluate the accuracy of clinicians (conventional radiograph) compared to cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and artificial intelligence software's ability to identify the quality of root canal obturation. Will the use of artificial intelligence software be compared to conventional software in accuracy?

Detailed description

AI is a new method used in the medical field, specifically dentistry. aiming to detect the accuracy of AI in the field of endodontics, specifically in root canal quality (correct length, density, taper, and coronal seal) compared to the skill of the endodontist using 2D radiograph and CBCT, and if any signs and symptoms of failure are detected in the treatment, retreatment is done according to the needs of each case.

Conditions

• Root Canal Treatment

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	root canal retreatment	if Retreatment was needed, local anesthesia using 1.8 ml (one cartridge) of 4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine local anesthetic solution, administered with end -loading cartridge aspirating syringe and a 27-gauge long needle. Under rubber dam isolation, All carious tissue and existing coronal restorations were thoroughly removed using a round bur, an endodontic access cavity, canal preparation and removal of existing root canal filling, irrigation with 2.6% NAOCL and saline, determining the working length using apex locator and PA radiograph, to be 0.5 to 1 mm shorter than radiographic apex, Drying the canal with paper point and obturation to achieve a dense, well adapted Monoblock obturation. A post-obturation periapical radiograph was taken to confirm the quality of the fill in terms of length, density, then sealed by a temporary restorative material.
