Microorganisms infecting the dental root canal system play an unequivocal role as causative
agents of apical periodontitis. Although fungi, archaea, and viruses have been found in …

Introduction Chronic apical periodontitis (CAP) is a frequent condition that has a
considerable effect on a patient's quality of life. We aimed to reveal root canal microbial …

Introduction Apical periodontitis (AP) represents an inflammatory condition of peri-radicular
tissues due to invasion and colonization of bacteria in the root canals. Primary apical …

Background Apical periodontitis (AP) is essentially an inflammatory disease of microbial
etiology primarily caused by infection of the pulp and root canal system. Variation of the …

In this study, microbial diversity of the root canal microbiota related to different endodontic
infections was investigated. In total, 45 patients with endo–perio lesions (8 patients), chronic …

Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has now been applied for a decade to characterize the
microbiota composition of infected dental root canals associated with apical periodontitis …

Apical periodontitis has a microbial aetiology and is one of the most common inflammatory
diseases that affect humans. Fungi, archaea and viruses have been found in association …

Introduction Advanced DNA sequencing technology allows more detailed analysis and
description of the endodontic microbiome. This study used the MiSeq high-throughput …

Aim To explore microbial differences in the endodontic infection of teeth with primary or
secondary apical periodontitis (AP), with or without symptomatology. Additionally, to …
