    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: To analyze the clinical effects of 283 deciduous teeth which suffered from periapical periodontitis and sinus in 179 children from the year of 2001 to 2004. METHODS: In all the 283 teeth, the root canal of 196 teeth were obturated with paste zinc oxide-eugenal; the other 87 teeth were obturated with Vitapex. The signs,symptoms and radiographs of these teeth were evaluated at 3 and 12 months after treatment. RESULTS: The successful rate was over 96.0% in both treatment groups. CONCLUSIONS: Most of deciduous teeth which suffered from periapical periodontitis and sinus could be preserved if adequate indications were taken and treated in time.
