Abstract: Objective To compare the favorable outcome of one-and two-visit endodontic treatment determined by periapical radiograph(PR) and cone beam computed tomography(CBCT) scans. Methods Fifty-six roots of dogs’ teeth were used to form two groups. All root canals were infected until apical periodontitis was radiographically confirmed. Roots were treated by one-visit therapy in group 1, by two-visit therapy in group 2, the radiolucent area in the PR and the volume of CBCT-scanned periapical lesions were measured after 6 months of the treatment. Results The 28.57% teeth in the one-visit group and 53.57% teeth in the two-visit group were classified as success in CBCT scans, the statistical analysis of the results did not show any significant difference between the groups(P=0.057). 67.86% teeth in the onevisit group and 78.57% teeth in the two-visit group were classified as success in PR, the statistical analysis of the results did not show any significant difference between the groups(P=0.365). A favorable outcome(lesions absent or reduced) was shown in 73.21% roots using PR but only in 41.07% roots using CBCT scans(P=0.001). Conclusion The present study give evidence that similar healing results might be obtained through one-and two-visit endodontics. Our findings provide evidences of the superiority of CBCT scans for the detection of periapical disease compared with PR.
