Outcome of Endodontic Retreatment Using 2 Root Canal Irrigants and Influence of Infection on Healing as Determined by a Molecular Method: A Randomized Clinical Trial

This study compared the clinical and radiographic outcome of endodontic retreatment of teeth with apical periodontitis using either 1% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) or 2% chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX) as the irrigant. The influence of residual infection detected by a molecular method on the outcome was also examined.
