| Research Abstract |
Intracanal microflora with apical periodontitis was investigated using two rapid microbial cell counters, anaerobic culture, and PCR targeting 16S rRNA genes. Mechanical enlargement of the root canal combined with chemical disinfection could effectively reduce the pathogen, though some species were resistant to this conventional protocol. Also, there were species seemingly linked to apical symptom. Species-specific antimicrobial therapy might enhance minimum intervention in cases harboring such species.
