Abstract EN
Background : This study was undertaken to examine the prevalence and technical quality of root canal treatment in Sulaimania subpopulation by using orthopantomographs.
Materials and methods : The panoramic radiographs of 704 Sulaimania adults attending the Dental College Hospital of the University of Sulaimania were examined for endodontic treatment technique and its association with periapical conditions.
Results : Out of the (704) cases examined, (40.7 %) were endodontic ally treated.
Periapical radiolucencies were found in (19.50 %) of all endodontic ally treated teeth.
More than (37.3 %) of the root-filled teeth were scored inadequate on the basis of a criterion evaluating the level of the root canal filling.
Conclusion : The technical standard of root canal treatment in Sulaimania general dental clinics is disappointing.
The findings indicate that there is still a substantial need for postgraduate endodontic education in Sulaimania and a need for specialists in endodontology.
