TLDR
The most common causes of endodontic failure are reviewed along with radiographic examples to avoid or minimize the most fundamental of reasons leading to endodentic failure.Abstract:
Inappropriate mechanical debridement, persistence of bacteria in the canals and apex, poor obturation quality, over and under extension of the root canal filling, and coronal leakage are some of the commonly attributable causes of failure. Despite the high success rate of endodontic treatment, failures do occur in a large number of cases and most of the times can be attributed to the already stated causes. With an ever increasing number of endodontic treatments being done each day, it has become imperative to avoid or minimize the most fundamental of reasons leading to endodontic failure. This paper reviews the most common causes of endodontic failure along with radiographic examples.read more

TL;DR: Microorganisms associated with endodontic failure have in common the following proprieties, which make them able to escape the disinfection measures: the ability to form a biofilm, to locate in areas unreachable to root canal instrumentation techniques, synergism, and the able to express survival genes and activate alternative metabolic pathways.

Influence of infection at the time of root filling on the outcome of endodontic treatment of teeth with apical periodontitis
TL;DR: This study investigated the role of infection on the prognosis of endodontic therapy by following-up teeth that had had their canals cleaned and obturated during a single appointment, highlighting the importance of completely eliminating bacteria from the root canal system before obturation.
