Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Determining the success/failure of endodontic treatment after a 12-month period. The success of the restoration will be assessed for marginal integrity, the presence of secondary caries, and any instances of fractured restoration. Simultaneously, stainless steel crowns (SSCs) will be evaluated to identify any instances of perforation and crown loss. Timepoint: Clinical and radiographical evaluation will be conducted at intervals of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Determining the success of restoration and stainless steel crownsTimepoint: Clinical and radiographical evaluation will be conducted at intervals of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months.
