Abstract

Objective: To investigate factors which influence UK general dental practitioners (GDPs) when restoring posterior root filled teeth.

Method: An electronic survey was designed to explore current strategies of treatment of posterior root filled teeth by UK-based GDPs working in primary care. Three vignette cases included in the questionnaire explored a variety of tooth, patient, and financial factors. The survey was distributed by email and social media platforms between December 2018 and February 2019.

Results: A total of 528 valid responses were collected. The majority of participants (84.1%) regularly restored posterior root filled teeth with an indirect restoration. Presence of persistent symptoms post root canal treatment (RCT) completion would impact the management of 85% of the surveyed respondents. Referral to a specialist, deferral of provision of the definitive restoration, and fear of litigation were reported by the GDPs as influencing factors.

Conclusion: This survey highlights that decision making regarding restoration of root filled teeth is a multifactorial process. Tooth, patient, and financial factors were all shown to influence the restorative management of the posterior root filled teeth.

英国全科牙医对后牙根充填修复的看法:一项虚拟调查。
目的调查影响英国全科牙科医生(GDPs)修复后牙根填充牙的因素:方法:设计了一份电子调查问卷,以探究英国从事初级保健的全科牙医在治疗后牙根充填牙时的现行策略。调查问卷中包含的三个小案例探讨了牙齿、患者和经济方面的各种因素。调查问卷于 2018 年 12 月至 2019 年 2 月期间通过电子邮件和社交媒体平台发布:共收集到 528 份有效回复。大多数参与者(84.1%)经常用间接修复法修复后牙根充填的牙齿。85%的受访者在根管治疗(RCT)完成后出现持续症状,这将影响他们的治疗方案。转诊给专科医生、推迟提供最终修复体以及害怕诉讼都是牙科医生报告的影响因素:这项调查强调,有关根充牙修复的决策是一个多因素的过程。牙齿、患者和经济因素都会影响后牙根填充牙的修复管理。
