Abstract

Introduction: The main objectives of root canal treatment are to provide comfort, function, aesthetics and long-term prevention of re-infection.

Treatment options after initial unsuccessful treatment include non-surgical retreatment, endodontic surgery, dental autotransplantation, intentional reimplantation and extraction. Objective: To review the literature on possible treatments to be performed following conventional endodontic treatment. Methodology: Information was searched in PubMed, SCOPUS and Google Scholar. Key words were used to search for information such as:
