Purpose
Evaluation of outcomes after treatment of significant periapical lesions with the GentleWave® Procedure. This study was led by Dr. Asgeir Sigurdsson and has been published in the Journal of Endodontics (Vol 44; 2018).
Methods
Forty-five teeth were selected from 45 patients who met the inclusion criteria and consented for the clinical studies and were diagnosed with periapical lesions with index score ≥3. Clinical signs and radiographic assessments were evaluated at 12 months to assess healing.
Conclusions
Treatment of sizable periapical lesions with the GentleWave Procedure resulted in a success rate of 97.7 at 12-month re-evaluation.
