TABLE 1.

Restorative failures for primary endodontically treated teeth three to five years after completion of treatment (N = 1,298).

TYPE OF RESTORATION FAILURE* NO. OF FAILURES PERCENTAGE FAILED, MEAN (95 PERCENT CI)
Tooth Cracked or Fractured 44 3.4 (2.4–4.4)
Restoration Replaced 57 4.4 (3.3–5.5)
Restoration Needs Replacement 80 6.2 (4.9–7.5)
Total No. of Restoration Failures 181 13.9 (12.1–15.8)

The subcategories of restorative failure are mutually exclusive; a tooth was allowed to be counted as a restorative failure only once, in the sequence of outcomes as presented in the first column.

CI: Confidence interval.
