Quality-Shaping Factors and Endodontic Treatment amongst General Dental Practitioners with a Focus on Denmark by Sune Demant, Merete Markvart, Lars Bjørndal

“…Caries appears to be the main cause for performing RCT and a preventive approach by employing stepwise excavation may reduce RCT, but this strategy does not remove the gap. Factors influencing RCT quality could be the status on adoption of nickel-titanium rotary technology, more focus on infection control (rubber dam use, knowledge of factors important for prognosis), as dentists often think that they are good at doing RCT, but often perform inadequately, an alteration of clinician's awareness of their performance in the context of dental practices, seems warranted. …”
