Abstract:Objective To assess the clinical effect of C+ files in root canal retreatment on molar teeth. Methods A total 60 molar teeth which needed endodontic retreatment were selected and randomly divided into two groups with 30 teeth in each group. The root canals were re-negotiated by C+ files and K-files respectively, and then prepared with rotary Pro Taper, all canals were obturated with vertical condensation technique. The success rates were calculated. Results The successful rate of re-negotiation of C+ files group was obviously higher than K-files group (P < 0.05), and the success rate was 87.7 %. Conclusion The use of C+ files is proved effective in molar teeth root canal retreatment, but we should pay attention to prevent root canal perforation.
