Selective Root Canal Retreatment: A Scoping Review and Metasynthesis by Thematic Analysis

Australian Endodontic Journal, Volume 52, Issue 1, Page 323-330, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Selective root canal retreatment preserves well‐filled canals by treating only roots showing clinical or imaging evidence of failure, providing a minimally invasive alternative to conventional full retreatment. This scoping review, supported by metasynthesis through thematic analysis, synthesised clinical and imaging evidence in multirooted ...
