Abstract: Objective: To analyze the clinical effect of apical microsurgery retrofilled with MTA in treatment of chronic apical periodontitis and provide references for the clinic treatment. Methods: One hundred and six patients (146 teeth) who received apical microsurgery in our hospital were followed up for one year. Surgical treatment included root-end resection, retropreparation with ultrasonic microtips, and root-end filling with MTA. All patients were reviewed after one year, and the clinical and radiographical examination were performed. Chi-square test was used to analyze the results. Results: The one year success rate was 95.9% (140/146). Gender, age, tooth position, and lesion diameter had no significant influences on the outcome of apical microsurgery. Five cases were failed because of root fracture and severe periodontitis. Conclusion: Effect of apical microsurgery retrofilled with MTA in the treatment of persistent chronic periapical periodontitis is satisfactory.
