Abstract

Background: This study was conducted to assess the Prevalence of Class 3 Malocclusion and Failed Endodontic Treatment and Treatment with Myofunctional Appliances and Retreatment File Systems, respectively.

Material and methods: This study comprised of 50 participants who underwent oral clinical examination. The subjects had been explained about the study procedure and were asked for consent. All the subjects gave consent for the study and had been included in the trial. The prevalence of class 3 malocclusion and failure of endodontic treatment was assessed and the findings had been noted down. The treatment of the above-mentioned conditions had also been performed. Statistical analysis had been carried out using SPSS software.

Results: There were total 25 cases of class 3 malocclusion and 25 cases of endodontic failure. Hence, both the conditions had 50% prevalence each. For class 3malocclusion, myofunctional appliances had been given. Chin cup was given in 12 cases, reverse pull headgear was given in 6 cases and Frankel III appliance had been fabricated for 7 patients. Protaper Universal retreatment file system was used in 3 cases only. Whereas, Neo-endo and R-endo systems were used in 16 cases and 6 cases, respectively.

Conclusion: From the findings of this study, it can be concluded that the prevalence of class 3 malocclusion as well as endodontic failure was 50%. Various myofunctional appliances as well as retreatment file systems had been fabricated and employed for the management of class 3 malocclusion as well as endodontic failure, respectively.
